Hertford Street. Constructed in 1812 following an Act of Parliament for 'improving the public roads and through the city of Coventry'. Prior to this traffic to and from Warwick had to use the narrow congested Greyfriars Lane. The name refers to the Marquis of Hertford, who was then the owner of Cheylesmore Park, on the south of the city. Hertford Street was closed to vehicular traffic in 1969.
