About

Broughton Astley is a large village and civil parish in the Harborough district of Leicestershire. The settlement has a defined village core of shops, pubs and community buildings surrounded by housing developments and agricultural land. The parish includes the older hamlet of Sutton in the Elms to the northwest, and fields and hedgerows remain at the village edge. Local provision covers day-to-day needs with primary schools, halls used by clubs and volunteer groups, and outdoor facilities such as playing fields and sports pitches used by football and bowls clubs.

Transport and community activity shape daily life: regular bus services link the village with nearby urban centres, and many residents commute for work. There is an active parish council and a programme of local events organised by community groups, from seasonal fairs to sports fixtures. Street patterns reflect growth from a historic core into planned housing areas, and the mix of services, clubs and open space gives the area a clear village character while serving a population that has expanded in recent decades.
