Willenhall, The Bear
Modern pub at the corner of St James Lane & Wroxall Avenue. Internally, bar to left, drinking area to right, games room (pool) to rear; TV, music (very loud), games machines. No cask ale available at my visit, despite the sign outside; appears to be a male preserve.

Open land at the corner of Stretton Avenue and Dunsmore Avenue, Willenhall, Coventry
Dunsmore Avenue runs across the picture, climbing left to right. The dense growth of scrub is on a strip of land running back from St James' Lane. A map of 1938 shows a small building on it, identified in 1947 as greenhouses and the land as 'Market Garden'. From the 1950s to the 1970s it is shown as 'Nursery'; a building appears at the front of the site. On a map of 1982 the site is unidentified and by 1992 carries tree symbols. Bollards at the edge of the trees, right, suggest public access.

Whitefriars Housing office for Willenhall tenants, St James' Lane, southeast Coventry
There is a small depot behind for the Homeworks housing repairs team. The scrubby woodland at the back has developed in recent years. From the 1930s to the 1970s the land is shown on old maps as a market garden and later as a nursery. This office may be the building that appears around 1980. A view from the west is Image

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.
