Coventry Hill Hotel, Rye Hill
The top of Park Hill Lane, now cut off, and the hotel on the other side of the A45. Park Hill Lane was the route from Eastern Green to the Windmill Hill end of Allesley until the A45 southern bypass was built and the pre-existing road between Allesley and Meriden was made dual carriageway. It continued to be open to through traffic travelling in a westerly direction until the 1970s.

The 1928 extension trebled the area of the city of Coventry from 4,147 to 12,878 acres, enveloping the village of Allesley which lies to the right of this marker. The decoration is the pre-WW2 city crest of (white!) elephant and castle surmounted by a wild cat.
