Maxstoke Lane off Fillongley Road, Meriden
Meriden stands at a busy crossroads and is close to the A45 Coventry-Birmingham dual carriageway. Local roads have been adapted to improve connections, safety and flow. Maxstoke Lane, an old road, has become a short residential road that continues north as a footpath. New properties have been shoehorned in among older houses.

1 & 2 The Thatched Cottages, Meriden
Technically, just no 2 - the other half of this pair of 17th century timber-framed cottages hides away behind a tall hedge rather effectively. Together they were Grade II listed https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101376656-1-and-2-the-thatched-cottages-meriden#.XaNf3uhKjIU & https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1376656 in 1976.
