The village of Lillington developed into a suburb of Leamington Spa from the 1930s onwards, with a large estate of council housing being built here in the 1950s. The Crown Way shopping centre opened in 1957 and remains the main retail area of Lillington, though it now has competition from a nearby small supermarket. http://lillingtonhistory.org/web2_documents/newsletters/2015springNewsletter.pdf
