It's a view from north-east of the city centre looking due north towards Whitley Common. Coventry baths are extreme right of picture with the former technical college behind it and also dead centre on the opposite side of Cox Street and Sky Blue Way ![]() |

I think it's been taken from the top floor of Thomas King House (high rise flats in Hillfields) and I have some taken from the smaller block, Hillfields House, you can just see the tops of the new student flats but they have kept the small part in the middle (white building)

I'm looking for a photo of Canterbury Street, of St Peter's Church and the cottages next to it, just before the Second World War. If anyone has one that I could copy, I would be very grateful.
Please contact me. Thank you ![]() |
