Weston under Wetherley, often known by locals as just Weston, is a small village and
Saint Michael. Weston is unusual amongst settlements in the United Kingdom of its size in that there is not a single shop there, the last being demolished in the 1990s, nor a pub
, which was closed in 2014.
Another place to be closed in the 1990s was Weston
gunpowder plot, passed through the village. They were fleeing from London after the arrest of Guy Fawkes. Apparently they were on their way to Wales (via Warwick Castle to steal fresh horses), after a meeting at Dunchurch, near Rugby
.
