Abbey Gardens, Nuneaton
The name of this open space near Nuneaton town centre is a reminder that the town was once a monastic centre. In 1155 a Benedictine priory was established here at what was then simply called Eaton. An abbey church was also built. There was a significant women's house as part of the priory which led to the 'Nun' part of Nuneaton's name. The priory was dissolved by Henry VIII in common with other monastic establishments in England.

Former textiles factory - Abbey Green, Nuneaton
This factory on the corner of Bath Road and Central Avenue dates from 1910 (some sources give a date of 1890) although it was extensively rebuilt in 1946 following war damage and extended in 1956. It has always been involved with clothing manufacture; the first owners were Hart & Levy, an important Leicester company at the time. They manufactured upmarket 'Harlevia' suits as well as coats and other outerwear; during the two world wars production was switched to military uniforms. It is not known when Hart & Levy closed down but it may have been in the 1970s; after they had gone a series of other companies occupied the premises the last of which, Cascade Textiles Ltd, went out of business in 2008 citing cash flow problems. The factory is now empty.
