Hillmorton history

Hillmorton was a village before Rugby spread to the east. The village was formed by amalgamation of two settlements: Hull and Morton. The main road between Coventry and Northampton runs through the village, and at one time a market was held there. The Oxford Canal was built around the village in the 1770s, where a flight of three locks known as ‘Hillmorton Locks’ was constructed. The former Rugby Radio Station opened in 1926 and contained radio masts 820-ft (294 metres) high.
