Kenilworth, Medieval market town in Warwickshire, England

Kenilworth spans across gentle hills between Coventry and Warwick, featuring a network of streets lined with Tudor and Victorian buildings.

The town grew around its castle, which endured England's longest medieval siege lasting 6 months during the Second Barons' War in 1266.

The annual Kenilworth Arts Festival brings performers, writers, and musicians to venues throughout the town, including the historic castle grounds.

Regular train services connect Kenilworth station to Birmingham and London, while the town center offers multiple parking facilities and shopping areas.

Little Virginia cottages mark the location where the first potatoes in England were planted, following Sir Walter Raleigh's introduction of the crop.
