Leire, a quiet hamlet in Leicestershire, rests in the gentle embrace of the East Midlands countryside. It lies 6.1 km north-north-west of Lutterworth (from Lutterworth: bearing 343°T, OS grid SP 525 901), and is situated north of Ashby Parva village. The fields surrounding Leire, often painted with the soft gold of ripening wheat or the deep green of pasture, suggest a landscape that has yielded its bounty with patient regularity for generations. Its modest collection of dwellings seems to have grown organically, a scattering of homes that huddle together against the wide, open sky. The air here, particularly on a still evening, carries a faint, earthy scent, a testament to the agricultural heart that has long sustained this corner of England. The church spire, a slender finger pointing towards the heavens, offers a silent, enduring presence, a focal point for the scattered lives that make up Leire.
