Hurst Road, Longford
Hurst Road is divided into two sections for vehicular traffic by a fence that is not all that easy to see in feeble light of an early evening in November. There appear to be several decades between the houses on the two sides of the road.

Longford Junction
Although there is no junction here now, this was the original site of the junction between the Oxford Canal and the Coventry Canal - the two canals running in parallel for the mile or so between here and Hawkesbury. The Coventry Canal's wharf was where the wood yard is now.
