An older photo than the other one of this title; this one was taken in March 2014. At the corner with Red Lane can just be seen the boarded-up Three Horseshoes pub, which has since become a restaurant. There was a pub of this name here from 1861; much of the building lost its first floor in an air raid in the second world war, leaving the single storey with flat roof that remains. https://www.historiccoventry.co.uk/cph/main/pub.php?pg=three_horse_shoes_stoney_stanton Beyond Red Lane are three and four storey apartments built in the early 21st century on the site of 19th century housing that had fallen into a poor condition. Coventry Peace House occupies the first six houses at the right of the photo, painted yellow with a white dove.
