This mural, depicting a pocket watch, appears on the end of a terrace of houses on Craven Street. It commemorates Coventry's history as a centre for watchmaking. A plaque on the house explains that this was the home of James Adams, watch manufacturer 1874-1888, commissioned by the Coventry Watch Museum Project.
