Comments (Meaning / History Only)
The town of Warwick (pronounced the same as Warrick) was founded in 914 AD by Æthelflæd, Lady of Mercia, and sister of King Edward the Elder. It is built on a small hill on the banks of the river Avon which controlled not only the river valley but also the river crossing on the road to London. It is still thriving today, and the county is now known as Warwickshire.
