About Gilmorton

Gilmorton, a Leicestershire village, rests within the quiet embrace of the Harborough district. It lies 4.5 km north-east of Lutterworth (from Lutterworth: bearing 37°T, OS grid SP 571 879), and is situated north-west of Kimcote village. The surrounding landscape, a gentle canvas of rolling fields, often catches the soft, diffused light of the East Midlands, painting the hedgerows with a subtle, golden hue. At its heart, Gilmorton's village green, a patch of well-trodden grass, suggests a history of communal gatherings, perhaps echoing with the faint murmur of bygone market days. The ancient stones of St. Mary's Church, its spire a slender finger pointing skyward, stand as a silent witness to centuries of village life, its weathered façade holding stories of generations past. The air here, especially after a spring shower, carries the clean scent of damp earth and new growth, a quiet testament to the enduring rhythm of rural England.
