Local shops, Green Lane
In the grip of Tier 4 Covid-19 restrictions most of these shops are probably temporarily closed except, maybe, for the chemist and the fish bar. (Frankly, I've lost track).

The Streisand Effect
Planting a screen of fast-growing leylandii trees to screen the garden serves to draw attention to it and makes passers-by wonder what lies beyond. This is an example of the Streisand Effect, named after Barbra Streisand's attempts to have an aerial photo of her clifftop California mansion removed from a website documenting coastal erosion, attempts which had the perverse effect of publicising the photo.
The hedge can be seen at the junction of Green Lane and St Martin's Road, on the southern tip of Coventry. On the Streisand Effect see Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect .

The summit of Howes Lane
Howes Lane (B4115) forms part of Coventry city boundary. Here it crosses a low ridge that juts out between the river Sowe and Finham brook. The oak trees are a reminder of its former rural nature but beyond the hedgerow on the right traffic roars by on the A46 bypass.
