History[edit]

Medieval and Tudor[edit]

Kenilworth Castle
The ruins of the gatehouse ofKenilworth Abbey

A settlement existed at Kenilworth by the time of the 1086Domesday Book,which records it asChinewrde.[2]

Geoffrey de Clinton(died 1134) initiated the building of anAugustinian prioryin 1122,[3]which coincided with his initiation ofKenilworth Castle.[4]The priory was raised to the rank of anabbeyin 1450[3]and suppressed with theDissolution of the Monasteriesin the 1530s. Thereafter, theabbey groundsnext to the castle were madecommon landin exchange for whatRobert Dudley, 1st Earl of Leicesterused to enlarge the castle. Only a few walls and a storage barn of the original abbey survive.

Abbey Fields

During theMiddle Ages,Kenilworth played a significant role in the history of England: Between June and December1266,as part of theSecond Barons' War,Kenilworth Castle underwenta six-month siege,when baronial forces allied toSimon de Montfort,were besieged in the castle by the Royalist forces led byPrince Edward,this is thought to be the longestsiegein Medieval English history. Despite numerous efforts at taking the castle, its defences proved impregnable. Whilst the siege was ongoingKing Henry IIIheld a Parliament at Kenilworth in August that year, which resulted in theDictum of Kenilworth;a conciliatory document which set out peace terms to end the conflict between the barons and the monarchy. The barons initially refused to accept, but hunger and disease eventually forced them to surrender, and accept the terms of the Dictum.[5][6]

During theWars of the Rosesin the15th century,Kenilworth Castle served as an importantLancastrianbase in the Midlands: The Lancastrian KingHenry VIand his wife,Margaret of Anjouspent much time here.[7]

Theparish church of St Nicholas,whereElizabeth Iworshipped in 1575 andJames Ivisited in 1616

Elizabeth IvisitedRobert Dudley, 1st Earl of Leicesterat Kenilworth Castle several times, the last in 1575. Dudley entertained the Queen with pageants and banquets costing some £1,000 per day that surpassed anything seen in England before.[8][9]These included fireworks.[10]

Near the castle there is a group of thatched cottages called 'Little Virginia': According to local legend they gained this name because the firstpotatoesbrought to England by SirWalter Raleighfrom theNew Worldwere planted and grown here in the 16th century. Modern historians however consider this unlikely, and have suggested that the name may have originated from early colonists to America returning to England fromVirginia.[11][12]

17th and 18th centuries[edit]

During theEnglish Civil War,Kenilworth Castle, was occupied byParliamentarians,after theRoyalistgarrison was withdrawn. After the end of the war, the castle's defences wereslightedon the orders of Parliament in 1649, after which the castle became a ruin.[5][13]

In 1778Kenilworth windmillwas built. In 1884, it was converted into awater tower,by the addition of a large water tank on the top of the tower in the place of the sails. It continued to be the town's main water supply until 1939, and finally became disused in 1960. It is still a local landmark, but is now a private home.[14]

19th century to present[edit]

With the demise of the defensive role of the castle, Kenilworth had ceased to be a place of national significance, butSir Walter Scott's 1821 novelKenilworthbrought it back to public attention, and helped establish the ruins of the castle as a major tourist attraction.[5][15]

In the early 19th century Kenilworth was known for its horncombmaking industry, which peaked in the 1830s.[5][16]

Kenilworth was revolutionised by the arrival in 1844 of therailwayto the town, when theLondon and Birmingham Railwayopened theCoventry to Leamington Line,includingKenilworth railway station.The station was rebuilt in 1884 and a new link line was opened between Kenilworth andBerkswellto bypassCoventry.This closed to all traffic on 3 March 1969.[17]The railway station was located to the south of theFinham Brookvalley, and this caused the focus of settlement at Kenilworth to move south, away from the castle, and nearer to the railway station. Industrialists fromBirminghamandCoventryarrived, developing the area around the town's railway station with residential and commercial buildings. In the 19th century Kenilworth had some fine largemansionswith landscaped gardens; these were demolished after theFirst World WarandSecond World Warto make way for housing developments. The railway also brought a number of new industries to Kenilworth, such astanning,brickmaking, and chemicals, and also caused substantial growth in Kenilworth'smarket gardening,which became known for producing crops such as tomatoes and strawberries.[15][16]

Parish church of St John the Evangelist

The town's growth occasioned the addition of a secondChurch of England parish church,St John's, which is on Warwick Road in Knights Meadow. It was designed byEwan Christianand built in 1851–1852 as aGothic Revivalbuilding with a south-westbell towerandbroach spire.[18]By the 1870s Kenilworth's population had exceeded 4,000.[15]

In 1869, localwhitesmithand engineerEdward Langley Fardondemonstrated the first bicycle withwire-spoked wheelsand rubber tyres, riding from Warwick Road toLeek Wootton.[19]

DuringThe BlitzinWorld War IIon the night of 21 November 1940, a German aircraft dropped twoparachute mineson Kenilworth; the large explosions in the Abbey End area demolished a number of buildings, killing 25 people, and injuring 70 more. The bomb damaged area of the town was redeveloped in the 1960s.[20][5]

In May 1961, the Kenilworth Society was formed over concerns about protecting a group of 17th-century listed cottages adjacent to Finham Brook in Bridge Street.[21]The Society sets out to promote awareness of Kenilworth's character and encourage its preservation.

British Railwithdrew passenger services from the Coventry to Leamington Line and closed Kenilworth Station in January 1965 in line withThe Reshaping of British Railwaysreport. In May 1977, British Rail reinstated passenger services, but did not reopen Kenilworth station, which became derelict and was eventually demolished. In 2011 Warwick Council grantedJohn Laing plcplanning permission to build a new station,[22]It finally reopened in 2018.[23]

In the early 1980s, the town's name was used by one of the first generation of computer retailers, a company called Kenilworth Computers based near the Clock Tower, for its repackaging of theNascommicrocomputer, with the selling point that it was robust enough to be used by agriculture.[24]

Kenilworth was struck byan F0/T1 tornadoon 23 November 1981, as part of the record-breaking nationwide outbreak on that day.[25]
