Weddington Castle, or Weddington Hall, was a manor house in the village of Weddington, Nuneaton in Warwickshire. Evolving from a Royal Hunting Lodge in the ancient village of Weddington to become an extensive fortified Hall set amidst landscaped gardens, this centuries-old building was demolished in 1928 to make way for a housing estate. Earliest references to Weddington Castle date from 1566, when it was mentioned in a suit. Only conjectures can be made about its history. It is believed to have been built by Thomas, Marquess of Dorset. In 1491, he enclosed the entire manor of Weddington, converted the entire piece of land to pasture, in the process turning 300 acres fallow. Records also tell of ten houses being left to go to ruins and over 60 people chased out of their homes.The manor changed hands after Thomas's son, the Duke of Suffolk, forfeited. The Crown leased the manor until 1561 to a certain Mr. Trye, who rebuilt the village, turning it into a farming commune. In 1730, there were four farmhouses and the castle in the manor. The manor of Weddington never truly was heavily populated; even in 1901 there were hardly a hundred people living there. Only recently, with the development of Nuneaton, have houses cropped up and the population begin to rise.Sir Samuel St. Swithin Burden Whalley (15 July 1799 – 3 February 1883) was a British Radical politician. Born into a Lancashire family "of great antiquity", he was the son of Samuel Whalley of Weddington Hall, Warwickshire.

The Abbeygate Shopping Centre (sometimes mistakenly referred to as 'Abbey Gate Shopping Precinct') is a shopping centre in the town centre of Nuneaton, Warwickshire, England. It was first opened in the 1960s and was originally known as Heron Way, and was once home to an indoor market. During a refurbishment in the 1990s a glass atrium roof was fitted and it was renamed Abbeygate. It now comprises 40 retail units. The centre has a retail mix of multi-nationals and small independents.The anchor stores were Argos and Peacocks. In 2020, Peacocks permanently closed down in the shopping centre, however it has since reopened once again in 2021 after a buyer was found. The reason for Argos' closure was due to Sainsbury's closing their standalone high-street stores as part of a "reorganisation". Argos still operate as a 'click and collect' branch inside the Vicarage Street Sainsbury's supermarket.In October 2010 the main post office for the town relocated from the outside of the centre to an internal shop.The centre is privately owned. In April 2018 it was sold to a mystery local property company for £4.3 million; considerably less than the £17 million the previous owners had paid for it in 2005.Since 14 January 2021, the former BrightHouse store, located inside of the Abbeygate Shopping Centre, is currently being used as a vaccination centre during the coronavirus pandemic.

The Nuneaton rail crash occurred on 6 June 1975, on the West Coast Main Line just south of Nuneaton railway station in Warwickshire, England, United Kingdom. The crash happened when the 23:30 sleeper from London Euston to Glasgow derailed after entering a temporary speed restriction at too high a speed. Six people (four passengers and two staff) died and 38 were injured. In the subsequent inquiry, the accident was deemed to have been caused by driver error, partially due to the failure of lineside equipment warning of the speed restriction.
