16 Little Park Street (also known as Kirby House) is a Georgian townhouse (Grade II* listed) in central Coventry, West Midlands, England. It is one of two remaining Georgian buildings on the street and three in the city centre (the other two being 7 Little Park Street and 11 Priory Row). The name Kirby House comes from Thomas Hulston Kirby, a solicitor and clerk to the county's magistrates, who bought it in 1874. It was built by Richard Bird (1690-1725), who was born and died in Coventry. Read more on Wikipedia
