Rushey Mead North

Rushey Mead North sits in the north-east of Leicester within the Rushey Mead ward. The area is largely residential, with a mix of terraced streets and semi-detached houses laid out around local shopping parades. Melton Road (A607) passes through the neighbourhood and provides frequent bus links to the city centre and to suburbs further north. Small green spaces and playing fields punctuate the housing, and walkable local routes connect schools, shops and community facilities.

Daily life in Rushey Mead North is anchored by its schools and local services. Rushey Mead Academy occupies a large site near the centre of the area and its sports pitches are used for community fixtures and training. Local shopping parades and takeaways reflect long-established South Asian communities, with specialist grocers and services serving weekday needs. Community halls, places of worship and regular bus services make the area practical for families and commuters while maintaining short journeys to city amenities.
