Looking down Charles Street, Warwick
All over the grass verges are the first fallen fruits of the lime trees. The most prominent feature is the leaf-like bract which may slow the fruit's descent or act as a sail. Also in view: houses built by the Nelson family for their workers; the houses and garden walls are constructed using an early form of concrete block.

Top of George Road, Warwick, with corner sofa
Unusual for the area, it's fair to say. One hopes it has been left at the roadside for collection by a charity or the council. More seriously, the belts of pine trees in this part of Warwick merit further research.

Semi-detached houses, Charles Street, Warwick
These houses were built by the Nelson family for workers at Emscote Mills by the canal, where the company manufactured several grades and forms of gelatine and gelatine products from animal hides. The first two pairs of houses appear on a map of 1886. Eventually there were four pairs of houses on each side of Charles Street making 16 dwellings in all
Image, with two larger houses for foremen and their families in All Saints Road up the hill
Image The houses, and their front garden walls, are constructed from exposed-aggregate concrete blocks with fair-faced quoins at the corners. When built, the view down the hill would have been dominated by the four tall chimneys at the works.
