Kenilworth is a town and civil parish in the county of Warwickshire. It is situated on Finham Brook, a tributary to the River Sowe, which joins the River Avon roughly 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, together with to other nearby cities and large towns, such as Birmingham and Leamington Spa. Whilst it is near to the University of Warwick in Coventry, the student population of the town stays relatively small, consisting primarily of postgraduate students and staff at the university. The town is especially well-known for the ruins and beautiful gardens of Kenilworth Castle, which was established around 1120 in the Norman period, but continued to be lived in till 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, called the Two Castles Run, which brings in 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 areas for travelers and visitors to the town. Kenilworth is home to many independent merchants and businesses, but the streets are progressively filled by high street stores, providing its residents and visitors many opportunities to shop.
