Local area guide
Skip hire in Nuneaton
Nuneaton is a town in Warwickshire, sitting around nine miles north of Coventry, with a population of around 90,000 — the largest town in the county. It takes its name from the Benedictine nunnery founded here around 1155, whose remains survive at Nuneaton Priory; before that it was simply Eaton, the settlement by the water. The town grew as a market centre and then, decisively, on coal and quarrying.
The Warwickshire coalfield ran beneath and around Nuneaton, with collieries at Griff, Haunchwood and Ansley working from the eighteenth century into the twentieth. Alongside coal came granite and quartzite quarrying, and the Judkins and Hartshill quarries supplied roadstone across the Midlands — the hard igneous rock of the Nuneaton ridge is geologically unusual for the region, some of the oldest exposed rock in England.
Nuneaton's most celebrated figure is George Eliot. Mary Ann Evans was born at South Farm on the Arbury estate in 1819 and grew up at Griff House, where her father was land agent. The town and the surrounding countryside run through her early fiction — Nuneaton appears as Milby in Scenes of Clerical Life, and Arbury Hall becomes Cheverel Manor in Mr Gilfil's Love Story. Griff House still stands, the town's museum holds a significant Eliot collection, and a statue of her sits in Newdegate Square.
Arbury Hall, the Newdegate family seat, is one of the finest Gothic Revival houses in England, remodelled in the eighteenth century and described by Eliot as a stone-lace fairy palace. Its grounds contain an early canal system dug to move coal from the estate's pits — the Arbury Canals, cut by Sir Roger Newdigate in the 1760s and among the earliest in the country.
Nuneaton sits close to the M6 at junction 3 and the A5, with Nuneaton station on the West Coast Main Line giving services to London Euston in around an hour, plus routes to Birmingham and Leicester. Neighbouring communities include Bedworth, Hinckley, Atherstone, Coventry and Bulkington.
Housing ranges from Georgian and earlier property around the Market Place to Victorian terraces built for the pits and quarries across Stockingford and Abbey Green, interwar and post-war estates at Camp Hill and Caldwell, and substantial modern development on former colliery land and the town's edges, with property among the more affordable in Warwickshire.
