Coventry was always the centre of England. Typically, the dead centre of the country is now officially Fenny Drayton, just over the Leicestershire border.
Well in my book they are wrong. The dead centre of England is still Coventry's London Road Cemetery.

My Gran and Grandad are buried in the London Road Cemetery, I wonder if they are still there.
Now I don't want any clever answers and I realise the 'plots' are getting scarce. There will be a time when some will have to 'double up' so to speak.
