Booth's Fields, Foleshill
This 'off-road' terrace of houses, fronting onto a footpath, dates from the early 20th century; the OS Six Inch 1888-1913 Series map https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/side-by-side/#zoom=16&lat=52.44003&lon=-1.49592&layers=6&right=osm shows a footpath, only partly built up and without these houses, in Little Heath on the northern edge of Coventry.
The path today forms Booth's Fields and its eastern continuation, an alley called Bacon's Yard; they connect Lythalls Lane and Foleshill Road, and are now deep in the built-up area of the city.

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.
