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.

Housing on Pipers Lane, west of Nuneaton This isolated row of houses stands on the west side of Pipers Lane, opposite Gin Wood. The bus visible in the distance is operating route 41 to Nuneaton, which normally continues to Birchley Heath but was terminating here due to roadworks on Ridge Lane.

North end of Pipers Lane, west of Nuneaton The trees on the left line a former railway embankment; an abutment of the bridge that once carried the railway across Pipers Lane can just be picked out in the shade on the right. The railway was a freight branch from Stockingford, on the former Midland Railway line from Nuneaton to Birmingham, to Green's Wharf and Ansley Hall Colliery.

Entrance to Whittleford Park by sleeper bridge from Whittleford Road There IS a way in. Such arrangements are designed to keep unwelcome users out – bikes, motorbikes, cars, possibly horses also.

Whittleford Park, Nuneaton The park looks as though it is managed more for wildlife than for people. Long grass has been cut in autumn, perhaps, and left to lie. To be fair, the site may well be former colliery or industrial land and management options are constrained; there may also be budgetary reasons for not collecting cut grass.
