Tamworth is a historic town and local government district in Staffordshire, England, located 27 km (17 miles) northeast of Birmingham and 198 km (123 miles) northwest of London. The town gained its name from the River Tame, which flows through the town, as does the River Anker. At the 2001 census the town had a population of 74,531. Tamworth is now the largest town in Staffordshire by population, as the far larger city of Stoke-on-Trent and its immediate environs seceded from the county in 1996 to become a unitary authority. Tamworth is the home of the historic Tamworth Castle and Moat House, and has a successful non-league football team, Tamworth FC. It is also home to the Snowdome, the first real-snow indoor ski slope in Western Europe, and Drayton Manor Theme Park. In the 11th century, a Norman castle was built on the site of the Saxon one, which still stands to this day as an important tourist attraction. Grants of borough privileges, including rights to a third additional fair in 1588, consolidated Tamworth’s historic importance as ‘the seat of Saxon kings’.
