Kenilworth
Kenilworth is a town and civil parish in the county of Warwickshire. It is set on Finham Brook, a tributary to the River Sowe, which joins the River Avon approximately 2 miles north-east of the centre of the town. The 2011 Census documented that the town has a population of 22413. Being 5 miles south-west of Coventry's city centre, Kenilworth is characterised as a dormitory town for commuters to Coventry, along with to other nearby cities and large towns, such as Birmingham and Leamington Spa. While it is near to the University of Warwick in Coventry, the student population of the town continues to be relatively modest, consisting mainly of postgraduate students and staff at the university. The town is especially renowned for the ruins and lovely gardens of Kenilworth Castle, which was founded around 1120 in the Norman period, but continued to be occupied until the end of the Tudor period. After 1983, Kenilworth Rotary Club has actually set up a fun run in June between Warwick Castle and Kenilworth Castle, known as the 2 Castles Run, which attracts increasing numbers of participants, with 3000 entrants in 2010 and 4000 in 2011. Kenilworth Abbey in Abbey Fields Park, St. Nicholas' Parish Church, and Kenilworth Clock, together with The Cross, a Michelin Star pub, are also attractive locations for tourists and visitors to the town. Kenilworth is home to many independent retailers and businesses, but the streets are increasingly filled by high street stores, offering its residents and visitors a lot of opportunities to shop.
