"Husbands Bosworth is a township and extensive parish, in the southern division of the County of Leicestershire, Market Harborough Union and County District, archdeaconry of Leicester, diocese of Peterborough, 6 miles east of Lutterworth, 14 miles south from Leicester, and 95 miles from London."

This is the website for the village of HUSBANDS BOSWORTH. Take a few moments to scratch the surface of our community, wander down some of the quiet streets, walk along the same ancient trackways that our ancestors did, 5,500 years ago. Peek inside the church where people have been worshipping since the late 12th Century.

Did you know that our village was the home to the last women to be executed as witches in this country? Take a look, there's more than meets the eye in Husbands Bosworth.

NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN

The village of Husbands Bosworth is a designated Rural Centre within Harborough District Council’s current Planning Strategy. As such, our community will be the focus for a higher proportion of development than other similar-sized villages in the area, and with very little ‘infill’ capacity, building will have to take place outside the established village ‘envelope’.  

As such a Neighbourhood Plan will be prepared to inform planning decisions. For more information see the main article NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN.
