Cranesbill by Portobello Way, Warwick What a sweetie! A jumble of soft leaves and intensely pink little flowers that gladdened the heart. Thought to be Hedgerow Cranesbill (Geranium pyrenaicum), it flowered for only a day or two.

2-4 Kenilworth Road, Leamington Spa This pair of Regency town houses was built c1822-34 and faces on Christchurch Gardens. Like many Leamington town houses they are built from brick faced with painted stucco and have cast iron railings and balconies. They were later enlarged to the left and to the rear and served as a hotel for many years, first as the Guys Hotel and more recently as a Berni Inn, painted strawberry-ice-cream pink. They have since been converted back to housing. Two-storey houses on Clarendon Avenue can be seen to the right. <span class="nowrap"><a title="https://historicengland.org.uk/images-books/photos/item/IOE01/14257/04" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" href="https://historicengland.org.uk/images-books/photos/item/IOE01/14257/04">Link</a><img style="margin-left:2px;" alt="External link" title="External link - shift click to open in new window" src="https://s1.geograph.org.uk/img/external.png" width="10" height="10"/></span>

Space Invader mosaic, Arlington Avenue, Leamington Spa This small mosaic, of 70 tiles, depicts an alien of the pixelated Space Invader type, familiar from the Japanese video game of that name from 1978. It is set into the white painted stucco of a wall outside a large Regency town house. One tile, near the top right, is translucent, suggesting a moon in the night sky. On Space Invaders, see Matt Alt, Pure Invention: How Japan's Pop Culture conquered the World, Constable, 2020.

Partial closure of Warwick Street, west side, Royal Leamington Spa During the pandemic the Parade (distant crossing) was made traffic-free to allow social distancing. The approaches of the Regent Street and Warwick Street crossings were closed, though some vehicle access was allowed for businesses. On the left the departed Yorkshire Bank suffers the indignity of being to let as a shop.
