Neighbourhood centre, Willenhall, Coventry
Exploring the Sowe valley is hungry work. Having asked directions to the shops and having paid no attention to the map, I was astonished to find myself in Willenhall, a place I knew only by name. This photo is a record of that moment, which was accompanied by the certainty that I would return.

Robin Hood Road, Willenhall
Willenhall is based around a large council housing estate mainly built in the post Second World War period. Today it is among the 5% most deprived areas in England. Nevertheless, there is a strong community spirit here, embodied in the Betty Ennis Foundation, a charity named after a well-known community activist who died in 2019 that seeks to improve the lives of local people. The Betty Ennis Hub, part of Willenhall's shopping precinct, sells upcycled homeware items and home accessories as part of the charity's activities. The building has been used as a charity shop for some time but previously housed Willenhall Library (which moved to a different site nearby).

YMCA Willenhall, Stretton Avenue, southeast Coventry
The sign also says 'Part of YMCA Coventry and Warwickshire' https://ymca-cw.org.uk Another sign further along says 'Willenhall Older People's Office' with the logo of Coventry City Council (CCC) Social Services but no building to go with it. Maps of the 1950s show small dwellings here on previously open land – prefabs? In the 1980s and 1990s a building here is 'District Centre' and further along is another labelled 'Clinic'. However, behind the camera is a newer brick building identified as CCC Social Services, and in the village is the new facility seen in Image, so there's been a move around.
