Coventry - Holy Trinity Church

Holy Trinity Church, at the northeast corner of Broadgate, has one of the three slender spires which are Coventry's best known landmarks. The spire of Holy Trinity, constructed in 1166, is 327ft/99.7m high. The church, in Perpendicular style, has very beautiful windows, a stone pulpit of about 1470 and interesting tapestries woven for the coronation of Elizabeth II. Priory Row, close by, is a charming little street of attractive half timbered houses. Behind Holy Trinity rise the new Cathedral and the ruins of the old.
