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.
