dutchman Spon End	1 of 38 Tue 12th Jul 2016 3:24pm This looks very much like New Street. Historic Coventry building last used as care home could become flats

NeilsYard Coventry	2 of 38 Wed 9th Nov 2016 11:59am Looking at maps - the great shot Dutchman found earlier - I think this was actually taken from New Street looking across south to Freeth Street. Freeth Street always seems a strange shape to be with its sharp turn then dead end - never actually going anywhere? Intriguing nonetheless as its another of those with very few images on.

NeilsYard Coventry	5 of 38 Sat 21st Oct 2017 11:40am FYI - I happened to be at Cov Uni yesterday and in the area by the George Eliot building there is a board with one of the old images here of New Street - they have planted a line of trees to mark the line of the old road which now runs through the campus.

Thanks for that one, I finally found my sense of direction when I saw the dear old Gaumont in the background.

Helen F Warrington	15 of 38 Thu 16th Aug 2018 9:40am Two good photographs there TSP. The first one is looking north west at what was left of Freeth Street. New Street is just beyond the buildings you can see. The entrance to New street is where the road curves to the right, past the people looking out of their door. The second is almost a Christmas card if it wasn't for the bracing.
