The chimney at the old Webster's brick works off Stoney Stanton Road.

Located off Stoney Stanton Road is a new development under constructionpers by Persimmon on the site of the former Courtaulds Factory.

At the site of the Old Brickworks on Stoney Stanton Road.

A short terrace of houses on Stoney Stanton Road, by the old Webster's brickworks site and opposite the Red Lane junction.

To the right, just beyond the bridge, can be seen Ordnance Road; the white-painted house on the corner was a post office for many years. The street is now a quiet cul-de-sac, but in the early 20th century it was the approach to the Coventry Ordnance Works, which made a range of weapons including army howitzers and naval guns. The OS 6 inch series map, 1888-1913, shows a mineral line crossing Stoney Stanton Road, just beyond the white house, connecting the factory and the brickworks opposite to the Coventry-Nuneaton railway. https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/side-by-side/#zoom=17&lat=52.41909&lon=-1.49801&layers=6&right=OSAPI The ordnance works closed in 1925. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coventry_Ordnance_Works The row of 6 yellow-painted houses beyond form Coventry Peace House, a housing co-operative active in peace and solidarity work. https://coventrypeacehouse.wixsite.com/coventry-peace-house

This is a mandir or temple of the Hindu Temple Society Coventry. A brief but informative history of the temple can be found on its website here https://hindutemplesociety.co.uk/home/brief-history/ . The temple is set well back from the road, behind a car park and behind and alongside the neighbouring Gulf petrol station. The temple's distinctive pair of shikharas, the domed towers, make it visible from the street, however, as does the large orange symbol on the front elevation, which represents the sacred syllable Om that is intoned in prayer and worship. The temple, at 380 Stoney Stanton Road, opened in 2011 and replaced an earlier temple at no. 274, which has since been demolished; it can be seen on this geograph Image

An older photo than the other one of this title; this one was taken in March 2014. At the corner with Red Lane can just be seen the boarded-up Three Horseshoes pub, which has since become a restaurant. There was a pub of this name here from 1861; much of the building lost its first floor in an air raid in the second world war, leaving the single storey with flat roof that remains. https://www.historiccoventry.co.uk/cph/main/pub.php?pg=three_horse_shoes_stoney_stanton Beyond Red Lane are three and four storey apartments built in the early 21st century on the site of 19th century housing that had fallen into a poor condition. Coventry Peace House occupies the first six houses at the right of the photo, painted yellow with a white dove.
