Aerial views of Coventry

Hi William, see my comment 171. It was at the eastern side of the eastern end of Bayley Lane, not far from Earl Street.

Thanks Helen

About here William...............yes really

Another new Aerial image that was new to me that cropped up recently on FB. It was marked as 80s but I think it's a bit earlier -

Thank you. I was not aware that this stretch was Bailey Lane too, possibly as I left Coventry in the late 80s. However, I am looking forward to walking around the city again next Friday. With a combination of the contributions on this site and recent reading it is fair to say I will be viewing the city with a different lens. So much has been lost even during the the last 35 years.

Is that Highfield Road Neil ?

Yes Anne - Paynes Lane in the foreground. I'm interested in what appears to be marked as Primrose Hill Cottage on maps lower centre.

Great work Neil Primrose Hill Cottage had gone by that point. It was demolished between 1950 and 1954.The last building as you follow Paynes Lane from the right is 126, 128, and 130. The cottage was just beyond 130, over the path. It was a bungalow, originally the lodge for Primrose Hill House. Those and St Peter's vicarage were the oldest buildings up there, appearing on the 1850 map.
