The Blundells footpath, Kenilworth
Many people use this footpath to get from the Albion Street area to the town centre shops. This is the point at which it crosses Priory Road, looking towards the town centre.
The sign says 'Warwickshire County Council - U.D.C. of Kenilworth - The riding of bicycles, tricycles or other similar machines on this footpath is prohibited under bye-laws made by the Warwickshire County Council and approved by the Secretary of State'
This dates it from before 1974, when the Kenilworth UDC was absorbed into Warwick District Council.

Priory Road, Kenilworth
A useful selection of businesses at the start of Priory Road - RSD Tool Hire, Knit One wool shop, Accountancy House and Kenilworth Cobblers. The building on the right, on the corner of Abbey Hill was obviously also a shop at one time, but not within my memory.
