Coventry - Your memories

ny historic account of a town could never be considered complete without involving the memories of those who lived there. In these pages I hope you will enjoy the memories and anecdotes kindly shared with us by visitors to this website, to whom I am immensely grateful.

If you have any memories or tales of old Coventry that you would like to see published here, please feel free to contact me, and very soon you can have a webpage here of your own!
