Pottertons, the people who made boilers, had a works and offices by the River Avon in Warwick. The site, behind the camera, has been redeveloped as flats: see Image from 2009. The staff sportsground across the river in Leamington had a football pitch and a bowling green. Presumably as a condition of planning consent, a public open space is being created. Here is the area to the north of Sir Anthony Eden Way, with a view to Rock Mill and houses in Rock Mill Lane, overlooked by the Riversleigh Road estate off Old Milverton Road. Photographed at about 13:30.
