About Peggs Green

Peggs Green endures as a patch of earth where the industrial ghosts of Leicestershire still whisper through the hedgerows. It lies 2.6 miles north-north-west of Coalville (from Coalville: bearing 332°T, OS grid SK 413 175), and is situated east of Coleorton village. The landscape here carries the weight of a coal-dusted past, where the ground bears the scars of deep-earth ambition and long-abandoned shafts. Close by, the crumbling silhouette of Hough Tower Mill marks the horizon, standing as a stark, stony sentinel over fields that have long forgotten the turn of the grinding gear. To the east, the terrain tilts toward the gentle rise of Red Hill, catching a pale, shifting light that turns the damp grass to silver during the winter months. Peggs Green sits in this quiet transit between the legacies of heavy labour and the slow, encroaching return of the wild. The air retains a sharp, honest chill, unburdened by the clamour of larger places, while the nearby ruins of Grace Dieu Priory offer a silent, stone-wrought meditation on the impermanence of human endeavour. This ground remains tethered to a rugged, practical beauty, defined as much by its hollowed-out history as by the stubborn persistence of the sky above it.
