Changed times

This is a former mansion called Thickthorn in Kenilworth which has been converted into a care home. The block to the right is a modern extension as part of its new role. At least this mansion has survived. Kenilworth had a mini-boom in Victorian times with several large mansions built in their own grounds on the then-outskirts. Most have been demolished and built over. The grounds of this mansion are also now mostly covered in housing. This mansion may have been slightly later than some others as the surviving stable block adjacent (converted to housing) has the date 1907 on it.
