Canal House, Coventry

Placeholder for Canal House, Coventry black plaque

Canal House Canal House was probably built around the 1840's and extended shortly afterwards. It replaced an earlier house which was demolished to provide a new access into the Canal Basin using the Drapers Field Bridge. The house was used by successive canal managers and in 1949 the last manager, John Kaye, purchased it upon leaving the company after nationalisation of the waterways.
