Villas and lime trees, Adelaide Road, Leamington
There were plans for this southwest area of the town in the 1840s but it was only later that any development took place. In 1850 Adelaide Bridge replaced the flood-prone Dale Street bridge suggesting that Adelaide Road itself had gained in importance as a route to both the Avenue Road and Milverton railway stations. Brunel's Oxford to Birmingham extension of the GWR reached Leamington in 1852. The spa town became a residential town, home to businessmen who commuted to Birmingham and Coventry. Not until the 1860s and 70s do town plans show the cluster of large elegant villas in Adelaide and Avenue Roads Image

View north up Adelaide Road, Royal Leamington Spa
Adelaide Road villas appear in street directories from the later 1860s, a surprising 15 years after the rebuilding of Adelaide Bridge across the widened River Leam following a flood. The previous bridge was named after the dowager Queen Adelaide in honour of her visit to the town in 1839. The development of Adelaide Road and Avenue Road, off to the right, is closer in date to the opening of the New River Walk. It may also reflect Leamington's slow change from resort to a residential town with good rail connections. The view is from the western mouth of Station Approach, which served the L&NWR's Avenue Road station.

Leamington Spa from the air
The grid pattern of the streets in the older part of the town is evident, as is the presence of many white coloured buildings. Viewed from a Birmingham bound flight from Prague.
