Tamworth, Borough in Staffordshire, England
Tamworth stands at the meeting point of Rivers Tame and Anker, covering 31 square kilometers of residential and commercial areas within Staffordshire.
The settlement transformed from an Anglo-Saxon royal center in the 8th century to a Norman stronghold with the construction of a castle in the 11th century.
The Church of St Editha and the Town Hall from 1701 represent different architectural periods that shaped the urban development of Tamworth.
The borough maintains multiple recreational facilities, parks, and commercial zones, serving a population that increased to 79,639 residents by 2022.
