The sign also says 'Part of YMCA Coventry and Warwickshire' https://ymca-cw.org.uk Another sign further along says 'Willenhall Older People's Office' with the logo of Coventry City Council (CCC) Social Services but no building to go with it. Maps of the 1950s show small dwellings here on previously open land – prefabs? In the 1980s and 1990s a building here is 'District Centre' and further along is another labelled 'Clinic'. However, behind the camera is a newer brick building identified as CCC Social Services, and in the village is the new facility seen in Image, so there's been a move around.
