Walk along Kenilworth Greenway

One Tuesday morning during my week off from work. I decide to go on a walk along the Kenilworth Greenway. It is an old railway line. It effectively provided a short cut avoiding Coventry for freight trains heading south.

What a lovely day I chose for it as the sun was shining!

 After a bit I took a green path off into a greenspace which is called Diamond Wood. And halfaway around it follow a mini river.

 A sculpture made out of a tree called Habitat by David Nash at the other end of the green space I walked along.

After heading back up the handmade path I came across the following sculpture.

New Bridge was installed in 2011 over the main road allowing easier crossing for cyclists and walkers from the Kenilworth Common

Kenilworth has recently got a new station. It finally opened on Monday 30th April.  They had one up until 1965. The new train may only go from Leamington to Coventry and back but at least we got one now.

The final part of the walk was through Kenilworth Common which is a Local Nature Reserve, which can be traced back to its creation in 1756. 

It was a lovely walk and even more so with the sun shining!
