About

Asfordby, Frisby and Old Dalby sit within the Borough of Melton in Leicestershire, a few miles west of Melton Mowbray. The area is largely agricultural, with arable fields, hedgerows and pockets of woodland; Frisby lies on the River Wreake, which runs past the village and shapes seasonal meadows. Each settlement has a parish church and community spaces such as a village hall and playing field, and lanes and public footpaths link farms, houses and small woodlands.

Old Dalby contains the Old Dalby Test Track, a dedicated rail test section that runs through the parish and has been used to trial high-speed and international rolling stock, including Eurostar equipment. Local traces of past industry and transport—old track alignments, yards and adapted buildings—sit alongside present-day farms. The villages host occasional markets and village events and provide direct access to rural walking and cycling, making them a working rural community with a long local history.
