View north-east from Priory Hall, 1967
Looking over the rooftops towards Wyken.
Fairfax Street and Cox Street in the foreground.
Demolition is taking place on Cox Street to make way for the Ring Road.
The roof of another factory building behind has also been removed - I think that this was the old Francis Barnett factory.

Looking across Lower Ford Street to Conisbrough Keep, Coventry
Conisbrough Keep appears to be a gated private road serving several blocks of student accommodation; another block is on the right. The viewpoint is a welcome scrap of open space at the acute corner of Lower Ford Street and Alma Street.

Severed road leading to Lower Ford Street car park, Coventry
The building on the left is Bodiam Hall, student accommodation for Coventry University. The low brick structure beyond it is an electrical substation, judging by aerial photos. Ringway Whitefriars sails by with Coventry Sports Centre beyond.

Green space by Cox Street
A small green space on the site of the former Cox Street Working Men's Club. The side panels of the ring road flyover have been renovated with a patterned effect that breaks up the outline.

Sports centre, Cox Street
Looking somewhat like a grazing elephant, the sports centre, opened in 1977, straddles Cox Street and is attached to the swimming pool building. A slip road to the ring road rises to the right.
