    Reminds me of The Shambles in York.

    Everything from 1930 onwards in Coventry was a travesty, it’s become a lot nicer in the last 10 years or so though

    Oh, Coventry. A town that has lost so much in the twentieth century.

    This is an absolute travesty. (Granted, I’m an American, and we have no medieval streets to speak of in my country. But wow, it just seems like such a loss…)

    Most of Coventry was destroyed in WW2, the remaining buildings left standing were moved to Spon Street.
