Hi dj. :)
What a great map! Thanks.:)
Where did you find this, or did you do it yourself hun? I haven't been able to navigate with it.
Is photography/cartography a hobbie dj?

Hi guys,:)
I completely agree.;)
And whoever came up with the name 'Ropewalk' needs to be run out of town! Actually, I bet they do live out of town.:D
For some reason, it just conjures up images of death row for me?!:confused: Which is not helped by the fact that the Warwickshire Justice Centre is visible from every approach to town.:p
What must visitors think?!:rolleyes:
Hope everyone is well.

Ropewalk has a historical significance to Nuneaton. Iread it somewhere.
I'm blowed if Ican remember what it is now , but it's something to do with rope making Ithink-surprise surprise-
I'm sure someone knows out there
Any way -the name is boring-it's a boring place--just like any other new- town developement.
Slick, shiny and boring--no romance at all in the design.

Hi guys,
Hope we're all well?:)
I didn't know that cathi. I know there's always been strong connections with textiles and mining here. Not much piracy and smuggling rum though.:D :rolleyes:

The Ropewalk wall surrounds on the ring-road always make me think of Alcatraz too - huge imposing chunks of rock. All these criminal associations I'm making?!
Oooook - I think I need to get some therapy...:help: :D

That wall hides what was meant to be a 'goods in entrance' visable from the lower and second floor of the ropewalk carpark when it was being built but for some reason now it resembles a new carpark for i belive Staff.....
