St Nicholas Hall, formerly the Parochial Hall is at 28 High Street. Built in 1910 on the site of a tithe barn. The hall was renovated in 2011 and is available for hire. Kenilworth is a market town some 6 miles south west of Coventry. The town lies on Finham Brook, a tributary of the River Sowe, which joins the River Avon about 2 miles to the north-east. A priory and a castle were built at the same time around 1122. A field in the town is named Parliament Field as Henry III held a Parliament there in August 1266 whilst his troops were besieging the castle. Kenilworth today is a dormitory town for commuters to Coventry, Birmingham and Leamington Spa.
