This archway is on a sharp bend in the Stratford Road. Renovation works to the wall on the right appear to be under way. I suspect a vehicle has failed to negotiate the bend.

Charlecote is a grand 16th century country house, surrounded by its own deer park, on the banks of the River Avon near Wellesbourne. The house was begun in 1558 and extended during the nineteenth century.
