Mandvessedvm, located in Warwickshire, England, is a significant heritage site that holds immense historical and cultural value. The site is believed to have been inhabited since the Iron Age, with evidence of human activity dating back over 2,000 years.

The main feature of Mandvessedvm is its impressive Roman fort, which was built in the 1st century AD as part of the Roman conquest of Britain. The fort served as a strategic military outpost, guarding the nearby Fosse Way, an important Roman road. Today, the remnants of the fort's walls and defensive ditches can still be seen, giving visitors a glimpse into the Roman military architecture of the time.

In addition to the fort, Mandvessedvm boasts a wealth of archaeological discoveries.

These artifacts are now housed in local museums, further enriching the historical significance of the site.

The surrounding landscape of Mandvessedvm is equally captivating. The fort is situated on a hill, offering panoramic views of the Warwickshire countryside. The area is known for its picturesque beauty, with rolling green hills and charming villages nearby.

Coventry Canal: Bridge Number 35: Stoneleigh Quarry Bridge The number plates on the bridges on the Coventry Canal are generally well-looked after. This one however appears to have escaped the attention of the maintenance team as it is entirely rusty and almost indistinguishable at a distance from the brickwork. The bridge takes Quarry Lane over the canal.

Coventry Canal: Bridge Number 34 A busy scene at an isolated bridge on the canal as a narrowboat and a BWB/CRT towpath grass mowing machine both try to go through the narrow bridge arch at the same time. The tillerman appears either completely nonchalant or contemplating the costs of a collision! The high ground to the left was once the site of Stoneleigh Quarry.

Coventry Canal: Bridge Number 33: Stoneleigh Glebe Farm Bridge Although this bridge has never been anything other than a farmers' bridge enabling access across the canal between fields it still merits Grade II Listed structure status. The fine semi-elliptical arch and the outwardly curving parapet with its blue brick saddleback coping distinguish it from some other original bridges along the canal. It was probably designed by James Brindley and built circa 1770. Very regrettably, even though it is in the middle of nowhere, some pondlife has crawled out of the canal and thought it a good idea to daub it with some paint.
