Coleshill is a market town in the North Warwickshire district of Warwickshire, England. It has a population of 6,343 (2001 census). Coleshill is next to the border with the West Midlands just outside Birmingham. Coleshill narrowly avoided being absorbed into Birmingham.
Coleshill dates back to Saxon times, but became important as a staging post on the coaching road from London to Holyhead. At one point there were over twenty inns in the town.
