About

Misterton ward lies in the southernmost part of the Harborough district, bordering Northamptonshire. The area is primarily rural, characterised by agricultural land and the small, linear village of Misterton itself, which stretches along a single main road. The landscape is defined by open fields and the Grand Union Canal, which traces part of its western boundary, providing a quiet route for narrowboats and walkers.

The settlement is compact, with a mix of older stone cottages and more modern housing. Community life centres on the local church and the village hall. A notable historical feature is the former Misterton Hall, a 17th-century manor house set within its own grounds, which contributes to the area's quiet, residential character amidst the surrounding farmland.
