Ace of Spades (junction)

There is absolutely no assertion of notability. The long comment on Talk:Ace of Spades (junction) puts it better than I ever could; in particular User:Ren Sydrick says "Generally speaking ( I doubt there are wikipedia guidelines for junctions ), I would consider a junction/road notable if it was really long, really dangerous, really safe, really large, really old or anything else that would make it stand out."

 * Delete. I see nothing at all notable about this intersection of two highways. Google turns up nothing. As for the two references provided, both mention this junction only as a reference to the location of another place. In fact, if this intersection did not happen to have a common name, the article would would have to be titled "Rotary at the junction of highways A3 and A243" or something similar. I have no doubt that would be deleted very quickly. If anyone turns up any information that demonstrates the notability of this intersection, I will be glad to change my opinion. •••Life of Riley (talk) 21:59, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keeep - Google gives several links, including House of Lords Hansard (bottom of page). PamD (talk) 22:18, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, that reference is provided in the article. However, it is merely a footnote that identifies the location of a stretch of road. •••Life of Riley (talk) 23:18, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete No different to any other roundabout. There is picture of the next roundabout along Image:Tolworth Tower.jpg, the photographer obviously deciding that the Ace of Spades roundabout was not worthy of a photo. MortimerCat (talk) 23:21, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge to List of road junctions in the United Kingdom: 0-A. No evidence of non-trivial coverage, probably not enough written about the junction for it to have a separate article. — Snigbrook  00:54, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
