Nuneaton is a small town located north of Coventry in England. It stands almost in the crossroad towards three major English cities, Birmingham, Coventry and London. One of the most known rivers of the region, the River Anker, runs through the town. Although it's not a major town, its population is quite significant – almost 79.000.
Once it was just a small hamlet, which was mentioned in the famous Doomsday book, but it transformed in to a totally modern and bustling town. Its history is long and diverse: the town started growing rapidly during the industrial revolution, mostly due to the numerous textile plants in the region, and soon soon enough a major economic power, competitiveness with Coventry in power and financial stability.
During the Second World War, though, it was heavily damaged by bombs. The local community decided to rebuild the town center and soon the largest part of the town was restored, reflecting its old glory and significance. Unfortunately the town lost a big part of the pedestrian paths in the center, but obtained a larger number of shops and malls.
One of the most famous residents of Nuneaton was George Elliot, the Victorian novelist, whose name was given to a large number of public buildings. George Elliot's original name was Mary Ann Evans; she used a male name to sign her novels so as to ensure that people would pay attention on her plays and novels.
She became one of the most important novelists of England and now many people come to Nuneaton to visit some of the places she lived and created her novels. Nuneaton is actually referred to as Milby in one of her books, the 'Scenes of a clerical life'.
Nuneaton features a large number of hotels and bed and breakfasts for visitors and guests all year long.
