Housing development on site of Coventry Colliery Social Club
The houses are being built on a strip of land alongside Bennetts Road in Keresley, on the site of the old club, its bowling greens and 5-a-side football pitch. Coventry Colliery Bowls Club has moved further up Bennetts Road North to a site on the rugby club grounds. https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/site-former-sports-club-coventry-19254793 The Coventrians football club continues to occupy part of the land between the development and Bunsons Wood. Their clubhouse can be seen in the centre of the picture behind the mound of earth, while players can be seen on the right behind the oak tree.

Cedar, Bennetts Road North, Keresley
This fine tree stands in the grounds of the former Coventry Colliery Sports & Social Club, which are now being redeveloped with housing. The tree, and two more of its type not visible in this photo, are being incorporated into the new development. I suspect this of being a deodar cedar, on account of the drooping tips of the branches, but would welcome help with identification. It had a fine crop of cones.

Keresley Library, Keresley End
The library serves the village at Keresley End, near to Prologis Park, the business park that occupies the site of the former Coventry Colliery. The settlement lies beyond the Coventry city boundary in Nuneaton & Bedworth borough, which forms part of the county of Warwickshire.
The library was closed by Warwickshire County Council during the period of 'austerity' and budget cuts following the financial crisis of 2007-2009, but has been kept running as a community library staffed by volunteers and stocking Warwichshire county library books and materials. Its web page can be found at the site of Keresley parish council https://keresley-pc.gov.uk/library.html .
