About

Mountsorrel is dominated by its large granite quarry, a working industry that has shaped the landscape and local history for centuries. The village centre sits close to the River Soar, with a mix of traditional shops and residential streets. The Granite Trail, a former railway line, provides a direct walking and cycling route out towards the waterpark and surrounding countryside.

Neighbouring Rothley is a linear settlement stretching along the main road, with its historic core centred around the crossroads. Rothley Brook runs through the area, feeding into several large lakes. The village is known for the National Memorial Arboretum satellite site at Rothley Crossroads. Open fields and grazing land separate the two communities, with views towards the wooded slopes of Bradgate Park to the west.
