New Testament Church of God in former Wesleyan chapel building, Old Church Road, Foleshill
A Wesleyan chapel was built here in 1813. The present building dates from 1848 and was repaired after damage in the second world war. In the 1960s it was known as Bell Green Methodist Church (see Victoria County History, https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/warks/vol8/pp382-396 ). It is now home to a congregation of the New Testament Church of God.

Cottages on Old Church Road, Foleshill
Coventry people generally associate Foleshill with the Foleshill Road, the historic main road north out of the city. The historic parish of Foleshill, however, was centred further east around Old Church Road, the old church in question being the parish church of St. Laurence, set back from the road in a wooded churchyard. The road itself still has a number of vernacular cottages and Victorian houses among the modern suburbia, as well as a 19th century Wesleyan chapel (not visible here). Old Church Road leads to Bell Green, and Dewis House, the tower block at Riley Square, can be seen in the distance.

Old Church Road, Foleshill, looking towards Bell Green
With its vernacular cottages and village chapel this Coventry street looks almost rural, though the housing block in the distance, Dewis House in Riley Square, is definitely urban. See also Image] and Image

A stone insert
The stone insert gives a date of 1882 when I presume this brick extension to the church was built.

The Saxon font
By far the oldest artifact in the church of St. Laurence is this font. It is dated to Saxon times according to information on douments inside the church.

St. Laurence's Church
A view of the rear of St. Laurence's church with some brick built extensions. They do rather ruin the look of the church.

The parish church of Foleshill is St. Laurence. It is set in quite a grave yard from which many of the grave stones have disappeared.
