Warwick is the county town of Warwickshire, England. It finds itself near the River Avon, some 11 miles south of Coventry and just west of Leamington Spa and Whitnash. This delightful area, which is also a market town, has much to offer when it comes to an Afternoon Tea in Warwick.
There is never a bad time, after all, to indulge in an assortment of sandwiches, scrumptious scones and heavenly cake – all washed down with a hearty brew.
Archaeological evidence suggests that people have lived in the Warwick area since at least the Neolithic period. By the 9th century, it had become a Saxon burh (fortification).
Warwick Castle was constructed later during the Norman era. Following the establishment of the earldom of Warwick in 1088, further development of the town took place.
Much of the town was destroyed in the Great Fire of Warwick in 1694. However, it has since recovered and gone on to become a flourishing tourist destination. Discover more about its rich history before or after visiting an Afternoon Tea Warwick venue. You won’t regret it.
