Summary
| Description |
English: Cook Street Gate, Coventry A grade I listed building, one of two surviving gates of the original twelve on Coventry's city wall[1]. Much of the wall was demolished after the Civil War, but the gates survived to the 18th century when all but the present two were removed. Cook Street gate dates from the 15th century and stands over a road which once led to Harnall. Used as a dwelling house in the 19th century, it was presented to the city in 1913 and restored in 1918 when the crenellations were added.
