You beat me to it Dutchman. :thumbsup:

I thought the hexagonal house was quite interesting. Do we know where it was put up and if it still exists?
Of course it'll fit; you just need a bigger hammer.

My sound wasn't working when the link was first posted so I wasn't able to comment but it looks like the sort of thing that would have been built very close to Warwick University? Of course we only have Pathé's word for it that it was built "in Coventry" at all.
