A stroll along the Coventry Canal to Hawkesbury Junction [5]
A pair of elegant local residents.
The narrow canal was built to connect the city of Coventry with the Trent & Mersey Canal, some 38 miles distant, to exploit the Warwickshire coalfields. Construction of the canal took 20 years before it was complete in 1769. The canal between the basin in Coventry and Hawkesbury junction was made a conservation area in 2012.

Stoney Stanton Road, looking south from the canal bridge
Stoney Stanton Road, seen from the first of the two canal bridges and looking towards the city centre; the spires of the old cathedral and Holy Trinity can be seen on the horizon. This part of Coventry was built up at the end of the 19th century with two storey, and the occasional three storey, brick buildings. The modern structure on the left is the Zeenat-ul-Islam mosque, which serves a mainly Gujerati community.

'Southam' in scrap yard, 1976
A 0-4-0 diesel shunter built by Hudswell Clarke as their D604 sits in a scrap yard by the Coventry Canal. The locomotive survived and was a feature of a pub at Southam for some while. The two chimneys are believed to be on the Courtaulds site, the central one near the junction of Guild and Pridmore Roads. Judging by the new state of the chain-link fence, the scrap yard has recently been extended over the site of former railway sidings. There is a suggestion of surviving rails this side of the fence at the left.
