Local Area - Rugby's a thriving market town that's laced with history. It's the place where the game of rugby was born back in 1823, when local student William Webb Ellis picked up a football and ran with it. To this day, the town celebrates the fact that it founded the game, and there are several monuments and places of interest to commemorate this, including a statue of William Webb Ellis and the Rugby Hall of Fame.
Local residents love the town's market, which has traded since 1235. Now held in the centre on Mondays, Fridays and Saturdays, it has a reputation as being a friendly place to shop, and the stall holders will get to know your name in no time if you're a regular. On days where the market isn't taking place, you'll never struggle to find somewhere to shop. Rugby has a great range of independent shops, but high street brands also have a presence in the town, with options including Marks & Spencer, Boots and The Range.
In the evening, Rugby also really comes alive with a great range of bars, pubs and restaurants. In fact, Rugby is famous for its quality pubs and 11 of these have CAMRA accreditation. As a result, Rugby even has its own real ale trail that's popular with locals.
