About Saltby

Saltby marks the horizon of the Melton district with a quiet, persistent elegance, its limestone buildings catching the pale, slanted light of the East Midlands. It lies 7.2 miles south-west of Grantham (from Grantham: bearing 215°T, OS grid SK 849 262), and is situated north-north-west of Sproxton village. The earth here holds the heavy, iron-rich memory of the Jurassic period, visible in the exposed strata near the Sproxton Quarry Sssi where the soil turns a deep, bruised ochre. Winds carry the salt-sharp scent of open fields across the flat, expansive pastures that define this corner of Leicestershire. Near the northern boundary, the waters of Swallow Hole mirror the shifting clouds, offering a tranquil depth that contrasts with the jagged, weathered stone of the landscape. History persists in the form of the Medieval Monastic Grange, where grass-covered building platforms rise like slow swells in a green sea. Saltby maintains a steady, agricultural heartbeat, indifferent to the hurried pace of the modern world beyond its borders. The air here feels thin and bright, clarifying the edges of every dry-stone wall and hawthorn hedge that marks the parish boundaries.
