About

Mountsorrel ward encompasses the village of Mountsorrel and its immediate surroundings, situated on the north bank of the River Soar. The area is dominated by the large granite quarry, a major local employer and a defining geological feature of the landscape. The village centre contains a mix of traditional stone buildings and local shops, with the parish church positioned near the river. Residential streets extend from the core, with newer developments on the periphery.

The ward's history is closely linked to quarrying, with the granite used in many local and national constructions. The river provides a natural boundary, with a weir and lock system for navigation. A prominent wooded hill, once the site of a Norman castle, offers views over the quarry and surrounding Leicestershire countryside. Community life centres around local schools, sports clubs, and the Memorial Park.
