History of Nuneaton

Coal mining had become an important local industry as early as the 13th century, and would remain so until the late 20th century. In the later half of the 18th century, during the Industrial Revolution a number of textile industries were established in Nuneaton including ribbon weaving, and the production of hats and leather goods. Brick and tile making and brewing also became important industries. At the time of the first national census in 1801 Nuneaton was one of the largest towns in Warwickshire, with a population of 5,000. By 1901 this had grown to over 25,000.
