Coventry

Coventry, the 9th largest city in England is also metropolitan borough in the West Midlands, England and is a part of Warwickshire. It stands only next to Birmingham in an area in the West Midlands region with a population of 345,385 in 2015. It is located 19 miles east-southeast of Birmingham, 24 miles southwest of Leicester, 11 miles north of Warwick and 95 miles northwest of central London. The Germans had destroyed the city during the Coventry Blitz in the Second World War (1940). However, the Coventry Cathedral was built after the Luftwaffe destroyed the St. Michael church in 1940 during the blitz.

The Motor Industry

Towards the fag end of the 19th century, Coventry saw a boom in bicycle manufacture. The industry energised by the invention by James Starley and his nephew John Kemp Starley of the Rover safety bicycle, became Rover. Rover evolved into a car industry in the early part of the 20th century. Jaguar Cars owned by the Indian giant Tata Motors, also has its headquarters in Coventry.

Post World War Era

After the end of the World War II, Coventry had to be rebuilt largely. According to the Gibson Plan, Coventry had a new nonvehicle shopping area. In 1962 Sir Basil Spence's new St Michael's Cathedral was consecrated. Its assembled steel spike was lowered into place using a helicopter.

Earlier in the 1920’s and 1930’s Coventry was expanded to give shelter and housing for those who came to seek for work in the booming business of Coventry. Radford, Coundon, Canley, Cheylesmore and Stoke Heath were the areas that came up during this time.

City Boundaries

Coventry is the largest part of the area of the Coventry and Bedworth Urban Area. Due to the protected West Midlands Green Belt, the expansion of the city into the administrative county of Warwickshire and the metropolitan borough of Solihull is not possible. This has also helped the city from merging with its neighbouring towns such as Kenilworth, Nuneaton, Leamington Spa, Warwick, Rugby and Balsall Common.
