Glenfield Faire

Glenfield Faire ward is located in the northwestern part of the Blaby district, bordering the city of Leicester. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of housing estates built from the mid-20th century onwards. It contains local shopping parades providing everyday services and several primary schools serving the community. The ward includes the grounds of the former Glenfield Hospital, which has seen significant redevelopment in recent years.

The landscape is shaped by the presence of the Faire Mile, a notable historic route and green corridor. This open space provides a key recreational area with walking paths. Transportation links are defined by the nearby A50 road, which connects the ward to Leicester and other parts of the district. The ward's community facilities include a library and sports clubs, reflecting its established suburban character.
