St.Mark's Church, Rugby Road, Milverton
Photo taken on a visit during Heritage Open Days 2010.
In 1875 an Act of Parliament created a new parish by dividing the original Milverton parish into two. This parish was then known as New Milverton. The money for building the church came from the legacy of Lady Frances Wheler, the sister of the parish's first vicar Charles Carus-Wilson. The land was given by the Heber-Percy family, the Dukes of Northumberland.
The church was designed by George Gilbert Scott junior, is his only surviving church, and is thought to be his best surviving work. There is a magnificent set of stained glass windows, some by the famous stained glass artist William Kempe.

Gaveston Road, Leamington Spa
These houses in the characteristic large pale orange Leamington brick, together with those in adjoining Greatheed Road, were built by Samuel and Arthur Bird between 1903 and 1911.
Gaveston refers to Piers Gaveston http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piers_Gaveston,_1st_Earl_of_Cornwall , favourite, possibly lover, of King Edward II. In 1312 he was murdered by his enemies on nearby Blacklow Hill Image where there is a commemorative cross, not yet photographed. A number of other streetnames in Leamington and Warwick refer to people and places associated with Gaveston's life and death.
