Why Coundon?

Originally a separate village, Coundon was incorporated into Coventry in the 1930s due to extensive housebuilding. It boasts a rich history, with parts of it mentioned in the Domesday Book. Today, it retains a sense of community while benefiting from its proximity to Coventry city centre. The area is split across two wards: Sherbourne to the South West and Bablake to the North.
