Villeneuve-le-Roi Gardens, corner of Lion Hill and Mitton Street, Stourport-on-Severn
Stourport-on-Severn and Villeneuve-le-Roi, near Paris, France, were twinned in 1971 and these gardens would appear to date from the following year. The gardens were recently redesiged and it is a pity the tacky sign was not repainted at the same time. When it was originally painted, it appears that the "i" of Roi was painted as "y" and then rather crudely altered. Behind the railings, but at a much lower level, is the Staffs & Worcs Canal.
