The Waterfront development, Warwick, seen from Rock Mill Lane, Leamington
Sir Anthony Eden Way, right, crosses the River Avon and leads to the area of flats for private sale built on the former Potterton's site. A new open space has been laid out on what was Potterton's sports field. It is liable to flooding. Anthony Eden was the Tory MP for Warwick and Leamington, 1923-1957. Pottertons made domestic boilers.

Living shrubs, Waterfront estate, Warwick
These are the shrubs that were photographed covered in webbing in June 2022:
Image Their leaves had been eaten by Ermine Moth caterpillars who had protected themselves from predators by spinning webs. In a recent visit to the scene curiosity about the shrubs' fate gave way to astonishment at finding the plants recovered and in full leaf. They may be a species of Euonymus (Spindle) – time will tell.

Unfinished development off Kempton Drive, Royal Leamington Spa
A notice on the fence states "Apartments and town houses for sale". All that has been built so far is the frame of the ground floor which is intended to house garages. The residential accommodation is/was intended to be built above the garages. Apparently there has been no building activity here for some years, presumably because of the recession. Photographed from across the River Avon.
