The Sherbourne at Spon End
Image: © FCG Taken: Unknown
Taken in 1972, when the area had been recently re-landscaped. The footbridge is a former canal bridge, removed here from near Sowe Common during the building of the M6. Beyond is the Ringway Rudge section of the inner ring road and the furthest building on the left was the GEC factory, previously Rudge-Whitworth and now demolished. The spire is that of Greyfriars/Christ Church, one of Coventry's three spires.
