This was already closed (apart from the toilets) by 4pm on a summer Sunday with lots of visitors around.

Events field, Coombe Park
11:12am, the rain has eased, but no forecast sunny spells as yet. The bouncy slide is inflated and ready for business and the riders in the vintage motorcycle run are being flagged off by an increasingly damp lord mayor, hoping those sunny spells will turn up ... http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/920007

Events field in the rain, Coombe Park
Sunny spells was the forecast, this is not one of them. Barely visible through the driving rain, some kites are aloft for the Coventry kite festival - the wind makes it a good flying day. In the foreground participants are readying for the annual Coventry vintage motorcycle run. Most participants are sheltering under the canopy of the visitor centre, as am I. Others simply continue their conversations, regardless. 10:27 - it might clear up for the 11am start... http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/919999

Covid-19 at Coombe Abbey
The yellow poster reminds visitors to Coombe Abbey about the need for social distancing and has a representation of what two metres actually looks like. At the time of this photograph the whole country was fervently hoping that the need for social distancing would soon be a thing of the past.
