Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Boundary marker, Allesley Marks the boundary between Allesley Parish and Coventry City and stands at the junction of The Windmill Hill with the Birmingham Road. The plaque reads "The boundary of the city was extended to this point April 1st 1928. Fred Lee. Mayor". The 1928 extension trebled the area of the city of Coventry from 4,147 to 12,878 acres, enveloping the village of Allesley which lies to the right of this marker. The decoration is the pre-WW2 city crest of (white!) elephant and castle surmounted by a wild cat. |
