Dunton Bassett, a quiet Leicestershire hamlet, draws its character from the gentle curves of the land. It lies 6.2 km north of Lutterworth (from Lutterworth: bearing 2°T, OS grid SP 546 906), and is situated west of Ashby Magna village. The fields surrounding Dunton Bassett, often a patchwork of emerald and gold under a wide East Midlands sky, speak of generations of husbandry, their contours smoothed by the passage of time and the turning of the seasons. The air here carries a certain stillness, broken only by the distant lowing of cattle or the rustle of leaves in the ancient hedgerows. The modest church, its stone weathered to a soft grey, stands as a silent sentinel, its spire a slender finger pointing towards the heavens. A sense of enduring calm pervades Dunton Bassett, a quiet testament to its enduring place within the English countryside.
