Plungar Leicestershire Map

About Plungar

Plungar, a quiet corner of Leicestershire, breathes with the slow pulse of the East Midlands. It lies 8.7 km south-east of Bingham (from Bingham: bearing 134°T, OS grid SK 768 339), and is situated south-west of Barkestone-le-Vale village. The surrounding fields, a patchwork of greens and golds under the wide English sky, seem to hold the murmur of generations of farmers. The ancient stones of St. John the Baptist's Church stand as a silent witness to the village's enduring presence, its spire a familiar landmark against the horizon. A gentle undulation in the land hints at the underlying geology, shaping the very contours of Plungar's modest spread. Even the air here seems to carry a certain stillness, a quiet dignity that has settled over the place like fine dust. It is a landscape that invites a thoughtful pause, a moment to absorb the unhurried passage of time.
