GREENBELT RALLY

Saturday 24th April 2010
Coventry City Centre

The Rally was excellent –
a lot of people were on the march, and we attracted a good deal of attention through Broadgate.

Mike O’Brien, Geoffrey Robinson, Nobby Clarke, John Mutton, Andrew Burtenshaw and other prominent figures were there. Conspicuous by their absence were any Conservative members of Coventry City Council. Perhaps they were uncomfortable about defending the Core Stragey?

Keresley Newlands

Keresley Newlands, to the North, was only developed in the early 20th century when mining commenced in 1911. Today the mine has closed and the mining site redeveloped as industrial warehousing. Like Keresley Green it maintains a tranquil rural setting. It is also known as Keresley Village or Keresley End although, as far as the Post Office is concerned Keresley End also includes Keresley Green.

The village is split into two parts. The smaller part to the West, consisting of houses on the western side of Bennetts Road North, & Bennetts Road and the whole of Thomsons Road is in Coventry, West Midlands. The remainder to the East is in Nuneaton and Bedworth, Warwickshire.
