Looking north towards Nuneaton before the speed limit was changed from 40 to 30 mph. This corner is known as 'Weston Turn' because the long established bus service from Coventry to Nuneaton (which for many years carried the number 765) turns the corner here from Weston Lane into Nuneaton Road. Nuneaton Road was known as Marston Lane until the 1930's - when houses started to be built along it. The name was probably changed to avoid confusion with Marston Lane, Bedworth and Marston Lane, Nuneaton. All of these roads lead to Marston Jabbett.
