SP3880 : Power lines heading to or from University Hospital, Walsgrave, Coventry
taken 9 years ago, near to Walsgrave on Sowe, Coventry, England
Power lines heading to or from University Hospital, Walsgrave, Coventry
This telephoto view is from the floodmeadow east of Abbotsbury Close, where the Sowe Valley path follows the river. Cow Parsley is in full bloom; hawthorn is just past. The power lines emerge from (or go) underground south of the huge hospital and appear to go underground (or emerge) to the north of it. Whether this actually is the hospital's supply is not known. Satellite images show nothing that looks like a substation. Usage must be colossal.
Sowe Valley, Coventry
The River Sowe rises in Bedworth, flowing south towards Coventry; it winds through the city's eastern suburbs before joining the Warwickshire Avon near Stoneleigh. The Sowe Valley Footpath follows the river for over eight miles, mostly through naturalistic green spaces. Link
