The rugby pitches at the Old Coventrians Rugby Club. The standing water reflects the dismal weather of Christmas morning which has brightened a little at midday. The club has further pitches and a bowling green to the right. A reminder of the days when factories and firms provided sports facilities for their employees - the Co-op and Renold Chain being two firms associated with these grounds in the past. The houses in the background are late 20th century infill behind 1930s housing on Broad Lane.
