A large town close to Coventry. Nuneaton has a variety of shops, from the normal high street offerings to a few independent shops. Strangely, Nuneaton becomes a ghost town on Sundays with only a handful of shops open!
Famed for textiles and George Elliot, the town celebrates it''s relationship with the author. The library (open 7 days a week!) has a large collection of her works, and the memorial park often has floral wreathes on the statue.
Limited parking - all pay to park.

A probably the largest town outside the big city you may know as Birmingham. Nuneaton, I know as being a town, mostly for the Gurkha army camp based there. But I did get a chance to visit the town. I learnt quite a bit and understood that it was popular for their textile industry as I did manage to visit one of the large factory shops where they sell lots home ware goods such as duvets, blackets to bedside lamps and all sorts. The town centre is pretty big with all the shops in any other ordinary town, a clean environment and a very friendly community. The railstation is very close to the town centre with connections to Birmingham. All around a good place to check out and definitely to settle in wiith a family.
