Rent Cabrio or Convertible in Coventry

Not far from the old school is a lovely St. John's Church that was founded in 1344 by the order of Queen Isabella. In the 16th century, a beautiful church has lost its religious status and was converted into a prison. Here cavalier soldiers, imprisoned in 1648 during the English Revolution, served their terms. One of the local sayings - sent to Coventry – is directly connected to this place. It literally translates as ‘commit to prison.’
Interesting historical sights are both Bablake School and Bond's Hospital located next to it. The school was founded in 1560, there only boys were taught. The school building, that has been repeatedly changing its face during a history, is an architectural monument constructed in a rare Tudor architectural style. The building of an old hospital was built a little earlier, in 1506.

Two old buildings are connected by an arched walkway. If you walk through it, you can find yourself in a landscaped courtyard, the appearance of which hasn’t changed over the past three centuries. The compulsory excursion program also has to include visit to the Ford's Hospital, which is a striking landmark of the early 16th century. For years, the hospital has remained the only refuge for lonely old people in the town; in 1940, the building was destroyed in the bombing. Through the efforts of local architects the building has been fully restored by 1952. Cook street gate remain the undisputable symbol of Coventry. It's a part of town’s fortification; ancient gate miraculously managed to survive to the present day.
