Coventry Market: Monday morning for traders and customers

The circular market hall has held a prominent and central focal point in Coventry’s architectural landscape for over 60 years. So in this soundscape, we slip inside to visit on an ordinary Monday morning in January. As we weave our way around the building for a full 360 tour, we enjoy listening in to the locals and traders’ passing exchanges and purchases.It’s not compulsory, but these soundscapes are best listened to while wearing headphones! All conversations are authentic and real. The recordings were captured using a binaural microphone between January and April 2022. You can also hear these soundscapes in the accompanying storyteller episodes in our first series.Sound design by Clare Freeman, opening music by Mintakaa. ‘Our Cov’ podcast series is a Coventry City of Culture Trust commission, created and produced by A Small Furry Bear Productions.

Priory Place to Pool Meadow: Tweeting birds and busy bus stops

There’s been a bus station in Coventry since way before the second world war. But it’s had many guises. Now known as Pool Meadow, it’s become a vibrant transport hub for travellers to access all corners of the city.But first we begin over the road in Priory Place - the now underground site of a mediaeval cathedral, once excavated by Tony Robinson and Channel 4’s Time Team programme. There’s no diggers in sight today - just the tranquillity of the birds in a quieter, greener corner of the city centre.It’s not compulsory, but these soundscapes are best listened to while wearing headphones! All conversations are authentic and real. The recordings were captured using a binaural microphone between January and April 2022. You can also hear these soundscapes in the accompanying storyteller episodes in our first series.

River Sherbourne: Walking Riverside in Coundon

Behind the Sherbourne Fields School is a path leading to Coundon Wedge Drive and Allesley village. Listen closely and we can hear the hum of the rush hour traffic in the distance. This time, we twist and turn walking along the river’s path, with the leaves and twigs crunching under our feet, taking in the birds and wildlife surrounding us on the outskirts of the city. We open and close the gates, and nod our head to a passing dog walker.It’s not compulsory, but these soundscapes are best listened to while wearing headphones!
