Lillington Road - Clarendon Street
These two roads meet end on at this point. As a result the house numbers descend (from left to right) 8, 6, 4, 2 on the brick faced buildings and then start again 1, 3 etc. on the painted houses. Good training for a novice postman!

Snow on Lillington Road

Solar Panels & Wind Generator
The huge panel on this house is a recently installed photovoltaic array to complement the wind turbine (the first in the area under recent regulations) attached to the end of the building. The size of the panel caused some controversy when it received planning approval as many shops and business premises claimed that their applications for much smaller advertising displays were routinely refused.

Terraced houses, Beauchamp Avenue, Royal Leamington Spa
The house in the centre appears to be of the same form as those on the left, but they have had a different surface treatment. Conservation Area guidelines recommend that houses be painted Magnolia or White, not always appropriately. It creates an appealing conformity but I don't know how authentic it is. Photos of post-war Leamington show terraces of grey cement render stained with soot from coal fires.

After a heavy snow storm
A heavy blizzard of the wrong sort of snow (the damp sticky variety) caused chaos, bringing down trees, telephone and power lines even in towns and built up areas. This view, looking east along Binswood Avenue towards Lillington Road in the adjacent square shows one of the trees brought down by the wind and weight of snow.
