Where to stay in Binley
Where visitors usually base themselves, and why.
Coventry holds the beds. Binley holds the housing and the Binley Mega Chippy that made its name. A stay on this side of the city means a private let among the council-owned and privately owned streets that spread east from St Bartholomew's Church, with central Coventry a short bus ride away.
Ivor Preece Field and Stoke House complete the suburb's short list of named sites.

About Binley
What are the main landmarks in Binley?
Three entries carry Binley's name on the register. St Bartholomew's Church, Ivor Preece Field and Stoke House are the sites the record fixes inside this eastern suburb of Coventry, and none of them is what made the place famous. The Binley Mega Chippy did.
A chip shop on the eastern side of the West Midlands city drew attention the church and the field never managed.
What is the history of Binley?
Binley began as a mining village. The village stood on the outskirts of Coventry, small enough for the record to call it that until housing turned the ground into part of the city's eastern edge. Council houses and private estates followed.
St Bartholomew's Church and Stoke House are the older addresses on the list, and Binley counts as a suburb of the West Midlands city rather than a village of its own.
Where is Binley?
The eastern edge of Coventry is where Binley lies, a large residential spread in the West Midlands of England rather than a separate village.
