ABC Wednesday - A Is For Across

St Mary Street and Bayley Lane

St Mary's Guildhall (to right - where I used to work), Drapers Hall (left)

and Cathedral Ruins straight ahead.

There aren't many T-Junctions in Coventry

where you have 3 historic buildings

'across' the street from each other.

The white canopy covers the entrance to

Coventry New Cathedral that adjoins the Old Cathedral Ruins.

Why did I takes these photographs?

It was the notice board below that caught my attention :).

It reads - 'Pray for Ourselves'.

Participating in ABC Wednesday

Around Coventry Cathedral Ruins

Bayley Lane, Coventry

I thought it might be fun to identify some of the historic buildings

located in the City Centre from this vantage point up the

Old Cathedral Tower.  See the 'key' below.

The truck is turning into St Mary Street.  More on that tomorrow.

In the Cathedral Quarter there are some

wonderful buildings that survived World War II.

The area where the museum stands was destroyed in the war.

Note from Lauren:

I took this photo in 2013.  It pretty much looks like this today.

If you are interested in seeing more of

any of these places, click on the 'labels' below.

This is the view from Coventry Cathedral, Bayley Lane gate.  We are looking down St. Mary Street with Drapers Hall to the right and the Council House to the left.
