Hillfields is a suburb of Coventry in the West Midlands of England. It is situated north of Coventry city centre, and has undergone a series of name changes throughout its history originally called "Harnall"^[1] and has seen itself change from a village, to a remote suburb, to a large postwar redevelopment zone.

Hillfields has always welcomed immigrants of all nationalities. It is one of the areas of the city with the highest number of refugees.^[2] Originally Irish communities, Indian-sub continent and West Indian communities settled in the mid 20th century. Hillfields used to be home to Coventry City Football Club on the Highfield Road stadium until the club relocated to the Coventry Building Society Arena. Hillfields is also home to Sidney Stringer Academy and it additionally includes Primrose Hill Park.
