About

Stoneygate North sits just south of Leicester's city centre, bordered by London Road and the University of Leicester campus. The area is characterised by tree-lined residential streets, primarily consisting of large Victorian and Edwardian villas, many of which have been converted into apartments. Its proximity to the university and several respected schools contributes to a steady population of students and academic professionals. The housing stock also includes more modern purpose-built apartment blocks, particularly closer to the main arterial routes.

The district is well-served by local shops, cafes, and restaurants concentrated along London Road and Evington Road. The historic Knighton Park, with its large pond and bowling greens, provides a significant green space for the community. The area is notable for its connection to the early 20th-century literary circle, with several blue plaques marking former homes of writers. Public transport links into the city centre are frequent, making it a convenient base for commuters.
