Merry Christmas 2015

St Bartholomew Church

Brinklow Road

It's Christmas Eve here in Coventry

and the photo shown here was taken in 2013

when we had a lot of snow.

Dedicated in 1773, on a site that dates back to

the middle ages, St. Bartholomew Church was built at the expense of

Earl of Craven who owned Coombe Abbey.

Have a super Christmas.

See you early 2016!!!!

Tree Series & Good News

Coombe Country Park

The Oak Tree I photograph throughout

the year in a Tree Series.

The good news is that the memorial picnic bench (damaged

by a BBQ fire) has been repaired.  A nice metal

surface has been added to protect it from heat damage.

Dare I mention that these photos were taken with my phone

on Sunday - a totally gloomy day.  Didn't stop us going for a walk :).

Shopping Trip To Birmingham

Selfridges, Birmingham

Coffee pods for sale individually or in packs.

I liked the look of the colorful display.

These don's qualify as murals but I'm still contributing to

Monday Mural because of the overall display look.

Tiles

Council House, Earl Street

Bird's-eye view of internal courtyard taken
from Coventry Cathedral Spire Tower.

I have visited the Council House many times but

 I have never seen those tiles until now.

Below is the front of the Council House.

You can see the tip of the Cathedral Spire beyond.

I wasn't up that high to take my shot :).

Happy Monday to you all.

City Daily Photo Theme Day - Shop Window

Holy Trinity Church

This one of the views you can see right outside the 'shop window' 

I am using for today's theme day post.

It is located in St Michael's Avenue right between

Coventry Cathedral ruins and the new Coventry Cathedral.
(see below)

The Cathedral Shop sells books, gifts and

you can purchase refreshments like coffee and tea too.

Step outside and you'll see Holy Trinity Church to your left, ...

...and look the other way, you'll see the entrance to the New Cathedral (below).
