Keenan Drive, Bedworth Heath
Probably dating from around the early 1960s, these houses are typical of their era: very uniform and built in a dead straight line.

Fishermen and rainbow at lake near Smorrall Lane, Bedworth
The rear of houses in Silver Birch Avenue can be seen in the background.
This area has changed significantly in the last twenty years. Up until the early 1970's there was just farmland, crossed by the branch railway to Newdigate Colliery. This ran on the near side of the boundary hedge to the properties in Silver Birch Avenue, which were built in the 1970's and 80's. The land in the foreground of the photo contained some railway sidings. The lake was not created until about 2000 as part of the new housing development adjacent which was built c.2000-2005. Virtually all the landscaping seen in this photo has grown up within the last 10 years.

The Sidings Pool, Bluebell Drive Park, Bedworth
This pond is situated near the junction of Heath Road and Smorrall Lane, in the western suburbs of Bedworth. It is known locally as the Sidings Pool, and a glance at the OS Six Inch map, 1888-1913 Series, shows a siding here running off the mineral railway that connected the Newdigate Colliery on Astley Lane to the Coventry-Nuneaton railway line to the east. The colliery closed in 1982 and the tracks have long since been removed, but the route of the mineral railway can still be traced, especially where it passes through cuttings. https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/side-by-side/#zoom=16&lat=52.47762&lon=-1.50003&layers=6&right=OSAPI
