Coventry, with a population of about 300,000, is the ninth largest city in England. The metropolitan borough of Coventry was created in 1974, within the then new metropolitan county of West Midlands. Coventry became a unitary authority in 1986, when West Midlands lost its administrative status, becoming purely a ceremonial and geographical county. Until 1974, Coventry was a county borough and part of the county of Warwickshire.
