Guy?s Cross Nursing Home, Coventry Road, Warwick
The earliest map at old-maps.co.uk is a 1:500 OS town plan of 1887. This pair of semi-detached mansions are shown and look established though neither are named. The nursing home occupies both. The gable end of dark brick beyond is one of the Fields Court houses. The view is from the island at the junction with Guy's Cross Park Road
Image It is not known what or where Guy's Cross is or was.

The summit of Cliff Hill, Coventry Road, Warwick
A map of 1938 shows this row of semi-detached houses in outline.
Image is a view from 2009. There had formerly been a large villa here called Guy's Cross Hill, at the summit of Cliff Hill. It is not known what or where Guy's Cross is or was. Speculating: a boundary marker with the Guy's Cliffe estate?

Fields Court, Warwick
A crisp, clean, unashamedly modern, intimate, secluded, well-maintained housing estate from the early 1960s.
It is the most agreeable piece of the baffling jigsaw of development on Cliff Hill.
The row of houses on the left is a continuation of those in Cliffe Way, seen at

Junction of Coventry Road and Guy's Cross Park Road, Warwick
Nightmare. Coventry Road is in the foreground. Guy's Cross Park Road divides to meet Coventry Road: this is the southern arm. For a driver there is a doubt: is it two-way or one-way? The right-turning arrow suggests the latter. There is no signage. It's worse for a pedestrian: there is no crossing. You reach the little island (not a refuge), then what? Anyone with a pushchair or in a wheelchair would have to wait in the road for a long break in fast traffic to 'safely' cross.
