Nuneaton is a town in the Nuneaton and Bedworthborough of northern Warwickshire in central England.
Nuneaton is most famous for its associations with the 19th century author George Eliot, who was born on a farm on the Arbury Estate just outside Nuneaton in 1819 and lived in the town for much of her early life.
On April 1, 1974 Nuneaton's council was merged with that of nearby Bedworth to form the borough of Nuneaton and Bedworth.
Nuneaton and Bedworth is a local government district with borough status, in northern Warwickshire, England, consisting of the towns of Nuneaton and Bedworth, the village of Bulkington and the green belt land in between.
Nuneaton had gained the status of a municipal borough in 1907, and Bedworth had gained the status of an urban district in 1928.
It was initially known as the Borough of Nuneaton however objections to this by Bedworth residents lead to it being re-named 'Nuneaton and Bedworth' in 1980.
