Spire Court, Plymouth
This spire is on top of a bank overlooking Blandford Road. The housing, flats for the elderly, was built in 2002 on the site of St Teresa's Roman Catholic church, which Cherry & Pevsner describe as a 1958 church, a small rectangle with an east clerestory-tower, but no mention of a fleche or spire. So I assume the spire, whose brickwork matches the flats, is contemporaneous with them and serves simply as an acknowledgment of the fact that a church stood here.
Update: thanks to John Haley, who tells me that he remembers the spire was part of the church of St Teresa, and so was not built to match the flats.

Priory Road, Compton
An echo of an old village at this corner on the one-way lane in the Compton valley. And a little further north, Chapel Way is quite rural in character.
