Mural of antique dealer and sandwich bar, Foleshill Road, Coventry
The underwater-themed mural and model dragons announce the 888 Emporium antique and salvage business, situated in a yard behind the Triple Ate Batch Bar, both at 888 Foleshill Road. The mural is signed by Off Key. The blue is Coventry sky blue; on the chimney is painted, Sky Blue Heaven, Eighty-Seven, referring to the year, 1987, when Coventry City won the FA Cup.

Danielo, what do we have here ?
A row of shops on Foleshill Road, Coventry. First, a Romanian food shop, 'Danielo, ce avem noi aici? Un minimarket costele'. Then more food shops interspersed with barbers, then a bright mural on a gable end announcing an antique and salvage business. The cars badly parked on the pavement are characteristic of Foleshill Road, too.

Ramgarhia Gurdwara, Foleshill Road, Coventry
The Ramgarhia Gurdwara is a Sikh temple (gurdwara) on a prominent site at 1103 Foleshill Road, further out of town than most other Coventry gurdwaras. Its website is here http://ramgarhiagurdwara.com/ , but has nothing to say about its history. It was founded in 1965, according to the Victoria County History of Warwickshire, Vol 8, pp396-397 https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/warks/vol8/pp396-397 . A brief TV news clip of the opening of the new building in 1969 can be seen here https://www.macearchive.org/films/midlands-news-07111969-opening-sikh-temple-coventry . The new structure shown in the news report is attached to a row of terraced houses, which have since been replaced as the gurdwara has been extended.

Terrace of houses, Foleshill Road, Coventry
This is a row of nine houses which look of late 19th century date. Very unusually for this area, they are built of hard brown sandstone, which suggests Bradford and the surrounding area of Yorkshire, rather than Coventry. The Ramgarhia gurdwara, built from the 1960s onwards, can be seen beyond them.
