Walking Just Outside Coventry University...WOW!
Coventry University, Gulson Road site
I have seen a glimpse or two of this building under construction on the Gulson Hospital site (driving from the Ring Road to London Road). Taking a walk got me this view of a small portion of what is to be the Engineering and Computing Building at Coventry University. It looks brilliant.

Something New, Something Old & Something Green.
Happy St Patrick's Day! I had to include 'something' green in Today's Photo. What we have here is a real mixed bag of old and new....Holy Trinity Church Spire (very old), Old Fire Station Tower (1902) and the Glass Bridge (2004) that connects Millennium Square with Lady Herbert's Garden.

This Morning in Broadgate, Coventry.
This is the view I had from my favourite seat at Starbucks in Coventry this morning. Looks like work is progressing on a new open space in Broadgate. The 'headline' news is typical of a City bombed heavily in WWII. I am happy to report that the story behind the headline has a happy ending.
If you want to read more, here is the Coventry Telegraph link to this story HERE.

Charity Event, Helium and University of Kansas...!
Here is the story. These colourful balloons can't be missed if you go into West Orchard Shopping Centre in Coventry. Suspended from the balloons is Stuart Kettell who is raising money for MacMillan Cancer Support. For more information click HERE.
In 1903 an unidentified gas was discovered in Dexter, Kansas, USA, and samples where taken to University of Kansas where it was determined that the samples were Helium. What is fun for me is that there is a family connection with this discovery and my great grandfather.
More about University of Kansas and this discovery HERE.

Spon Street - Historic Buildings & A Watch Museum
Spon Street has on display a number of beautiful historic timber framed buildings. The photograph below is not an example of that. These 3 modest dwellings date back to early 1800's when many people lived in 'court houses', commonly found in Coventry. There is a suggestion that these are Coventry's last example of court house dwellings. 'Watch' out, there is a surprise to be found here too....read on.
Court 7 (Number 22, 23, 24), Spon Street, Coventry |
A watch museum! The Coventry Watch Museum Project purchased this property and their museum is just beyond those historic court houses. I am looking forward to visiting the museum very soon. For more information about Coventry Watch Museum, click the link HERE.
