SP3077 : Onley Terrace, Canley

taken 2 years ago, near to Westwood Heath, Coventry, England

Onley Terrace, Canley
Onley Terrace, Canley
Canley was developed with council housing from the 1940s onwards by Coventry Corporation and its city architect Donald Gibson. Single-storey housing was built for retired people; 'terrace' is an odd name for a street of semi-detached bungalows arranged around a 'banjo close', a narrow dead-end street culminating in a turning circle, but perhaps it sounded reassuringly familiar to people moving out from the inner city. See Ruth Cherrington on Canley at the Municipal Dreams blog LinkExternal link .
