A detail of the concrete bridge, built in 1931, that carries the road over the Coventry-Nuneaton railway, showing the steps that lead from the service road by Holbrook Lane onto the bridge itself, which joins Holbrook Lane to the north and Lockhurst Lane to the south. The railway, which opened in 1851, had previously crossed the road at a level crossing. See Fry, D & Smith, A, The Coventry we have lost: Forgotten Foleshill, Simanda Press, 2018, p29.
