Local historian Bill Dunn from the Earlsdon Research Group has sent us this photograph of a gated road at Earlsdon taken around the turn of the last century
He says: “The gate in the picture stood in Earlsdon Lane, now Earlsdon Avenue South, on the boundary between Earlsdon and the Gregory Estate.
“It was sited adjacent to a path which is still present and which now runs from Earlsdon Avenue through to Morningside.
“The view, looking towards Earlsdon, was taken around 1900 by Edwin Walker, a gold watch case maker.
“He was a founder member of the Coventry and Midland Photographic Society and lived on the corner of Earlsdon Terrace and Cromwell Street, now Berkeley Road South.”
