These two structures are the only obvious survivors of Lockhurst Lane buildings earlier than the late 19th century, and have been much extended with commercial frontages. Lockhurst Lane formed part of the parish of Foleshill and was a centre of the ribbon-weaving industry; one of the earliest co-operative societies was founded here in 1832. https://heartofengland.coop/society/roots/
