Swinford Leicestershire Map

About Swinford

Swinford lies a quiet, unassuming presence in the Leicestershire countryside. It lies 5.5 km south-south-east of Lutterworth (from Lutterworth: bearing 154°T, OS grid SP 568 794), and is situated north-east of Catthorpe village. The arable fields surrounding Swinford often catch the low afternoon sun, turning the rich soil to a burnished gold, a colour that seems to seep into the very stone of the older cottages. A small stream, barely more than a murmur most of the year, traces a gentle course through the fields, a silver thread in the green expanse. The air here carries the faint, earthy scent of cultivation, a reminder of the land's enduring bounty. Life in Swinford moves with the seasons, a quiet rhythm dictated by the turn of the agricultural year and the slow passage of the sun.
