New houses, Tile Hill Lane

The somewhat grandiosely named 'Mowbray Manor' housing development built on the site of the former Tile Hill College. According to the sales blurb it is named after the 'Mowbray family who resided in the manor of Temple Balsall in the 13th century'. Tile Hill Lane, as the B4101, does connect with Temple Balsall but it seems a tenuous link. Perhaps I'm missing something.
