Guest chris955 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Yes good luck with the return, it is a nice part of the world up around there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gary12 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 not sure if you have been back in those 6 years but there has been alot of changes in Kenilworth (for the better) Before we left there was a long term investment plan with Waitrose going into the square and a redevelopment of the town centre. We lived just out in Stockton but grew up in Coventry had many a nice walk on Abbey Fields and a few wines at the Queen and Castle and the pub next to it, I can't remember it now. lovely area to go back to best of luck Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chris955 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 I started to read your post and thought it was going to be one of those 'you wouldn't believe how bad things have become in the last 6 years' posts :biggrin: Hoodies on every corner, everyone is stabbed at least once a day and there is 127% unemployment.

Did you really? Or did you simply decide to use another person's thread as a vehicle for your sarcasm and apparent attempt at point scoring? To the OP. Good luck with your move back. kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starlight7 Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 We used to live in Kenilworth just before we emigrated in 1975- it was good to hear about the place again, thanks. I remember Abbey Fields and the De Montfort and free access to the castle if you were a ratepayer. We lived up Beech Drive, off Leyes Lane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are out that way pop along to Hunningham to Hill Top Farm for a quick lunch, lovely spot overlooking the rolling Warwickshire countryside down towards Princethorpe. regards Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
