To the tune of "When the Saints go marching in" (ish) emanating from beneath the Ring Road, this was the view yesterday ![]() ![]() |

The cannon can be seen in the foreground. The card doesn't say if this is from a painting.

I`ve just put a picture, I took of it back then, in my gallery and had intended to say where it is now situated but can find no trace of it on Google maps. |

I've just read it says it's on a walk way and you could easily miss it, nothing unusual of our historic things the bit that are left.
As they are altering by there from the station not sure if it's still there. |

bohica coventry All posts by this member | 14 of 123 Tue 5th Jan 2016 3:29pm Member: Joined Apr 2012 Total posts:270 As a kid walking to and from school, I usually passed through what I knew as Greyfriars Green park (just in front of a row of estate agents, and by where the toilets were). I seem to remember that there was a weather proof lectern there with a book and that the page was turned every day.
Does anyone else remember this and would the book have been a bible? Question |
