Private road with used and disused garages, rear of Avenue and York Roads, Leamington
The private road would have first served the Avenue Road properties on the right: elegant villas Image, perhaps from the 1860s, that would have had a rear tradesman's entrance, maybe a carriage house. To the left, the properties in York Road were built in the late 1890s on the site of a nursery Image; their chimneys are visible. Garages have been built; old outbuildings have been converted. Despite that, cars park on the frontages of some houses in both roads. Leyland Cypress casts dense shadows in the astonishing, almost Mediterranean light. Photographed with an iPhone 6, mid-June, middle of the day.

The high roof in the distance belongs to a house in Adelaide Road, where the private road exits. Pollarded lime trees cast dense shadows in the astonishing, almost Mediterranean light. Photographed with an iPhone 6, mid-June, middle of the day.

A stunning old rose looks over a garden wall, private road, Royal Leamington Spa

These red flowers pulsate in the astonishing, almost Mediterranean light. Photographed with an iPhone 6, mid-June, middle of the day.

Private road to the rear of Avenue Road and York Road, Royal Leamington Spa
It would have first served the Avenue Road properties on the left: elegant villas, perhaps from the 1860s, that would have had a rear tradesman's entrance, maybe a carriage house Image To the right, the 3-storey properties in York Road were built in the late 1890s on the site of a nursery Image Garages have been built; old outbuildings have been converted. Despite that, cars park on the frontages of some houses in both roads. Someone has planted Photinia to screen the wall on the right: a mistake. It'll soon become a nuisance. What's wrong with seeing a wall? Photographed with an iPhone 6, mid-June, middle of the day in astonishing, almost Mediterranean light.

York Promenade meets Library Walk, Leamington
Late 19th century town planning in action. From York Bridge, left Image, the borough engineer William Louis de Normanville laid out Library Walk, centre, which created a pedestrian route from the town centre to the railway stations and the library from 1898. The steps, foreground, mark the eastern end of York Promenade, opened in 1893, which connects to the New River Walk, now part of Victoria Park, by underpass below Adelaide Bridge. A ramp, right, was provided for bathchairs and perambulators. Information from The Leamington Spa Gardens by Christine Hodgetts, Warwickshire Gardens Trust, 1997
