Oh come on lads, somebody must have the ball.

Brookstray

Coventry has several stream courses along which building had been avoided due to the risk of flooding and 1940s planners envisaged that they could be developed as 'brook-strays' providing 'green wedge' public access land from the city centre to the outskirts. (Ref: "The Future Coventry", The Corporation of Coventry, c. 1945)
