Shops on Holbrook Lane by junction with Burnaby Road
This row of shops, which include a barber and a florist, continues to flourish despite its location by an extremely busy road junction where a slip road from the A444 joins Holbrook Lane.
The large orange sign on the side wall has been placed there by Dhillons, a Coventry craft brewery. It expresses support for the Indian farmers demonstrating against three Farm Acts passed in 2020 by the Indian parliament with the aim of deregulating agricultural markets. The farmers and their supporters have organised large protests in Delhi and elsewhere, including Birmingham, arguing that the laws threaten the livelihood of farmers in India, and especially in the states of Punjab and Haryana. 'Kisan ekta Zindabaad' is a Punjabi slogan, apparently meaning 'Long live farmers' unity'. See this interview https://lpeproject.org/blog/long-live-farmer-laborer-unity-contextualizing-the-massive-resistance-going-on-in-india/ and this Wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020%E2%80%932021_Indian_farmers%27_protest for some context.

Detail of railway bridge, Holbrook Lane, Coventry
A detail of the concrete bridge, built in 1931, that carries the road over the Coventry-Nuneaton railway, showing the steps that lead from the service road by Holbrook Lane onto the bridge itself, which joins Holbrook Lane to the north and Lockhurst Lane to the south. The railway, which opened in 1851, had previously crossed the road at a level crossing. See Fry, D & Smith, A, The Coventry we have lost: Forgotten Foleshill, Simanda Press, 2018, p29.
