About

Wymeswold, Rearsby and Cossington sit within a patchwork of farmland, hedgerows and lanes in Charnwood. Each settlement retains a compact centre with a parish church, a village hall and a small cluster of shops and pubs that serve local needs. Narrow country roads link the three villages and open out into fields, footpaths and bridleways used by walkers and riders. Farming and small-scale local trades remain visible in field barns and farmyards around the villages.

Community life revolves around regular events, amateur sport and volunteer groups that run the village halls, greens and playing fields. In Wymeswold the former RAF airfield lies close to the village edge; its perimeter track and a low control building mark the landscape and are used today for a mix of recreational flying and motorsport activity. Short public paths give direct access from each village into the surrounding countryside, where hedgerow patterns and old lanes show the long history of settlement and land use in the area.
