Monkey puzzle tree, Lythalls Lane, Holbrooks
A monkey puzzle tree stands in a front garden on Lythalls Lane, a striking foil to the street trees, an avenue of severely pruned London planes. The monkey puzzle tree that is normally grown in Europe is the hardiest species in its genus, Araucaria araucana, which is native to Chile and Argentina, where it grows on the lower slopes of the Andes mountain range; see Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Araucaria_araucana .

Supported housing block, Everdon Road, Coventry
One of two blocks at the junction of Everdon Road and Holbrook Lane. This one stood on the north side of Everdon Road, while another, of very similar design, stood to the south. Each fronted onto a communal yard shared with bungalows. This photo was taken at the entry to the yard from Everdon Road, and the entrance to the block can be seen just to the right of the left-hand tree trunk. The block comprised 15 bedsits, each with a small kitchen and a toilet, with shared shower rooms, lounge and utility room and a site office. They were built as social housing for elderly people. More recently, both blocks were let to property guardians, before being demolished in 2020. Bungalows are now being built on the site.
