More about this scene
Leaving Daventry on the west-bound turnpike to Warwick and Stratford upon Avon we arrive at Staverton village. On the way to Staverton, in a lay-by is one of Telford's toll houses. When this photograph was taken there was a filling station opposite the New Inn. Today it is a car showroom. Someone has parked on the left to collect the new-laid eggs advertised on a roadside sign. With today's traffic, this would not be a wise place to stop, as this road can be very busy! The huge cedar tree towering over the 'New Laid Eggs' sign was blown down by a gale in the 1970s.
