Griffydam rests in the rolling landscape of North West Leicestershire. It lies 5.6 km north-north-west of Coalville (from Coalville: bearing 338°T, OS grid SK 411 190), and is situated east of Newbold village. The subtle curve of the land here, a gentle rise and fall, hints at the ancient earthworks that might once have marked this place, a quietude that has long settled over the fields. The air often carries a faint scent of damp soil and distant woodsmoke, a testament to the agricultural rhythms that have shaped Griffydam through the ages. Even the light seems to fall differently here, softer, as if filtered through the memory of generations who have walked these paths.
