the town. They are now amalgamated to form Alstom. Engineering in

centric, â--Junction Oneâ-- which has a 9 screen cinema and several
shops and fast food outlets. â--Technology Driveâ-- is mainly home
stores and DIY based. Elliotâ--s Field has launched a second phase
with more big names to compliment the existing retailers. There are
many excellent schools In Rugby including grammar school (Lawrence
Sherrif), Girls School, Ashlawn School (OFSTED Top Rated) and of
course the world famous Rugby School where the modern game of Rugby
was born.
