The final house at Priory Mews has been demolished as safety works at the entrance of the Warwick street continue.

Severn Trent began knocking down the homes in January, some two years after safety concerns around the road were first raised.

Thought to be subsidence caused by a burst water main, there have been discussions around Priory Mews since February 2022.

Councillors at Warwickshire County Council last year revealed progress was on hold until Severn Trent cut a deal with the last remaining homeowner.

Having started quickly, work on site had stalled over the past few months with one of the buildings remaining standing.

However, the water company knocked down the final home in November, meaning the scheme can continue.

A Severn Trent spokesperson said to Nub News in September: "While the cause and responsibility for the issues at Priory Mews is undetermined, to act in the best interest of those affected we stepped in to help manage it to bring things to a resolution as quickly as possible.

"We're continuing to work with all affected residents, who our insurance teams remain in contact with throughout.

"A lot of the recent remedial work has been taking place to the subsurface to support the road, as well as to individual properties."
