Moira rests in the gentle embrace of North West Leicestershire. It lies 4.2 km west-south-west of Ashby-de-la-Zouch (from Ashby-de-la-Zouch: bearing 256°T, OS grid SK 316 156), and is situated east-south-east of Spring Cottage village. The surrounding countryside, a patchwork of arable fields and copses, exhales a quiet, earthy scent, particularly after a spring shower. Evidence of its industrial past, a legacy of coal mining, can still be glimpsed in the subtle undulations of the land and the tenacious wildflowers that reclaim forgotten earthworks. The houses of Moira, many built from local brick that glows a warm russet in the afternoon sun, face inwards towards a modest village green, a space where the quiet murmur of daily life unfolds. The air here, away from the bustle of larger centres, carries a distinct clarity, a refreshing balm to the senses.
