We are looking towards Coventry; beyond Parkgate Road, Wheelwright Lane becomes Holbrook Lane. It is a wet and blowy Friday morning in May. The Alena Mini Market, with its European Union flag, is one of the many 'European food' stores in Coventry, and over the door it says 'Welcome' in English, Polish ('Witamy') and Romanian ('Bine ati venit'). Beyond it, the mobile phone shop is shuttered, but the Imperiun Pharmacy is open, as is SKG Store Parkgate beyond the junction. But the shop unit on the far corner is empty, as the Coventry Building Society branch has closed.
