The Wall


A nearby plaque on Scarcroft Lane notes that:

This Wall and Carriage Road Belong Exclusively To The Freemen of Micklegate Ward

I wonder why?!

  1. My husband is a Freeman of the City of Coventry. Think that means he can graze his cattle & sheep (of which we have none) on common land amongst other things. Maybe Freeman there have the 'right of way' down that nice lane :).

    1. Women can be 'Freemen' of the city too, not sure if they use the term Freewoman though!

  3. A great spot for walking, if you're allowed!
