Chestnut Square, Royal Leamington Spa
This development occupies land that for many years was used for allotments. The house design attempts to match many of the older terraces in the town. Unfortunately however the architect failed to replicate the vertical proportions of the buildings with the result that these properties look like they have been partially squashed by a giant foot!

Leicester Street from the Campion Hills
There are not many hills of note in Leamington Spa, and this view is looking down the lower part of the steepest as the road descends from the Campion Hills. The traffic calming measures in the shadows were introduced to restrict the activities of boy-racers who used to speed down here.

Villiers Street, Leamington
On the skyline are houses in Rosewood Crescent, seen from the rear. The sharp change of level results from the excavation of clay for the former Leamington Brickworks. Leamington brick was larger than today's standard brick. It was a pleasing pale orange and is seen in older buildings, mostly in Leamington.

Site of Leamington Brick Company
The claypits and works of the Leamington Brick Company occupied the SW corner of this square and provided the material for much of the construction of Leamington Spa until the middle of the last century. The pits have long since been filled in and grassed over to form an open space. This picture is looking SW with the spire of St Paul's visible on Leicester St. The area around the edge of the pits was developed for housing in the 1960s and 70s.

Waiting for summer
This Virginia creeper was rampant on the gable end of a house in Campion Terrace, Leamington Spa. It must look spectacular during summer.
