One of the largest towns in North Warwickshire, Nuneaton is located nine miles north of Coventry and 20 miles east of Birmingham. Towns close to Nuneaton include Bedworth, Atherstone and Hinckley, with Tamworth and Lutterworth a little further afield. The town lies three miles from the Leicestershire border, 8 miles from Staffordshire and 12 miles from Derbyshire.

Nuneaton was established in the 12th century around a Benedictine nunnery and continued to grow after the disillusion of the monestaries caused the nunnery to fall into disrepair. The market which was established in 1233 is still held to this day. During the Industrial Revolution in the 19th century, Nuneaton developed a large textile industry. Other industries which developed in the town included brick and tile making and brewing.

The town boasts many popular primary and high schools as well as four colleges and sixth form centers. There are three main leisure centers, a bowls club, as well as several football and rugby clubs.
