Garendon ParkWilliam Davis HomesCharnwood is a borough in the north of Leicestershire, named after Charnwood Forest, much of which lies inside it. To the south it borders the City of Leicester. Loughborough is the borough's main town and the base of its council.
Loughborough is a market town known for its university and its bell foundry. Shepshed and Syston are the other towns, Syston being part of the Leicester urban area. Between Loughborough and Leicester a string of villages follows the A6 and the River Soar, Quorn, Barrow upon Soar, Mountsorrel, Sileby and Birstall among them. Quorn gave its name to the Quorn Hunt, and Woodhouse Eaves is a Charnwood Forest village.
Charnwood Forest covers the western part of the borough. It is hilly, rocky country with moorland, very old rocks and woodland walks known for their spring bluebells. Beacon Hill, at 248 metres, is the borough's highest point. Bradgate Park and Swithland Wood are among the places open to walkers. The Outwoods, 110 acres of ancient woodland south of Loughborough, is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and the most easterly part of the National Forest.
Loughborough station is on the Midland Main Line, with trains to London St Pancras, Leicester, Nottingham, Derby and Sheffield. The M1 cuts through Charnwood Forest, with junction 23 just west of Loughborough, and the A6 runs through the borough between Leicester and Derby.
