This is a view of Wyken Pool on Boxing Day 2022, seen from the eastern shore looking towards Alderman's Green School among the trees to the west. The pool is a flash caused by coal mining subsidence in the 19th century. It is Coventry's largest body of water, much appreciated by water birds and by local people.
