Adam & Eve public house, Eden Street
This district around Stoney Stanton Road, Coventry, is marked on the OS map as 'Paradise', though I have never heard anybody locally refer to it by that name. A ten-storey block of council flats called 'Paradise House' can also be found on Eden Street.

A stroll along the Coventry Canal to Hawkesbury Junction [20]
Although very much with the city, this stretch of the canal has a rural feel.
The narrow canal was built to connect the city of Coventry with the Trent & Mersey Canal, some 38 miles distant, to exploit the Warwickshire coalfields. Construction of the canal took 20 years before it was complete in 1769. The canal between the basin in Coventry and Hawkesbury junction was made a conservation area in 2012.

Paradise House sign and detail of tower block
“In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.” (John 14:2, King James Version). https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/John-14-2/ A block of Coventry council housing on Eden Street may not be what was intended here. This block of 58 flats in 10 storeys was constructed by Wimpey for Coventry County Borough Council between 1961 & 1962. https://www.towerblock.eca.ed.ac.uk/development/eden-street Nearby is the Adam & Eve pub.
