Upper Broughton rests gently in the Vale of Belvoir, a scatter of stone and thatch touched by the soft light of the East Midlands. It lies 9.7 km north-west of Melton Mowbray (from Melton Mowbray: bearing 316°T, OS grid SK 681 261), and is situated west-north-west of Nether Broughton village. The surrounding farmland, a patchwork of green and gold, rolls away towards the horizon, its contours softened by distance and the prevailing skies. The village itself, though modest, holds a quiet dignity, its houses clustered around a simple green where ancient trees might have witnessed centuries of quiet living. A palpable sense of continuity pervades Upper Broughton, a feeling that life here has flowed with a steady, unhurried grace, much like the gentle streams that thread through the nearby countryside. The air often carries the scent of damp earth and distant woodsmoke, a comforting perfume of rural existence.
