Bedworth is a small market town of roughly 42,000 in the Nuneaton and Bedworth district of Warwickshire. The town is lies between the M6 motorway and the A5 and is situated between Coventry (5 miles to the south) and Nuneaton (3 miles to the north).

Bedworth has six main suburban districts, namely Collycroft, Exhall, Mount Pleasant, Bedworth Heath, Coalpit Field and Goodyers End. Exhall is a generic name for the area surrounding J3 of the M6 motorway, comprising parts of both Bedworth and Coventry. Much of what is now considered Exhall within south Bedworth is also referred to as Hayes Green by locals and on older maps of the area.

Originally a small market town of Saxon origin, Bedworth developed into an industrial town throughout 18th and 19th centuries, largely due to coal mining and the overspill of ribbon weaving and textile industries from nearby Coventry. The opening of the Coventry Canal in 1769 and later, the railway in 1850, further enhanced the town's growth. Until quite recently Bedworth was primarily a coal-mining town, with the last colliery closing in 1994.

Due to its good transport links and proximity to major cities such as Coventry, Birmingham and Leicester, Bedworth is now growing rapidly as a dorminitory town. Bedworth is very well placed in the centre of the motorway network, adjacent to J3 of the M6 and within easy reach of the A5. Additionally, the town benefits from a reliable local bus services with direct and regular links to surrounding areas, including Coventry, Nuneaton and Leicester. Mainline railway services with direct links to London, Birmingham and the north of the country are at Coventry and Nuneaton, and Bedworth itself is served by it’s own railway station on the Coventry - Nuneaton line. The Coventry Canal also runs through the town.
