The Egg/Ankerdrive[edit]

It's been referenced in a few places on Wikipedia (The Egg (disambig.), Roundabout and Magic Roundabout (Hemel Hempstead), so I thought it may as well have its own article. I can't find much information about it though - it's known as "The Egg" in Google Earth Hacks and in a forum post, Ankerdrive in the survey by Saga and on a list of fun junctions, and both on Road To Nowhere, since deleted (Google Cache). SABRE makes reference to Ankerdrive island here and here. The reason I didn't title it "Ankerdrive" is that all the map data and Fixtures Live suggest that Ankerdrive is a part of the roundabout, but not the roundabout itself. Does anyone have more authoritative sources? Elektron 13:47, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Egg User[edit]

I don't see what all the fuss is about. I've driven round the egg plenty of times and there's nothing wrong with it. Also it's far, far too big to be considered a round about in it's own right. It's more of a weird ring road. MatthewFP 14:04, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I propose that The Egg (roundabout) be merged into Tamworth, Staffordshire. I propose this a I don't think a single roundabout is big enough to have its own article and I think it could easily just fit into its own section on the Tamworth article.
