The church isn't level inside! It's well worth popping in. The VE Day memorial is very well done and worth a closer look.

Great road with a tail wind

Top tip only park your bike on the left, (looking from the road) there is a sign to remind you when you arrive. Great service, nice little upstairs room when the weather isn’t so good, or sit outside side on warm sunny days, good value for money with the coffee and cake.

Motte and bailey (Norman cattle mound and moat ditch).

Historically held by Radulfus Basset in 1166, the name of this village signifies 'farm/settlement on a hill.' The village witnessed the opening of the Great Central main railway line in 1899, with a station named after nearby Ashby Magna. Today, Dunton Bassett is known for the Dunton Bassett Arms pub, a primary school and a village hall donated by successful Leicester builder Orson Wright. The village's cricket club, established in 1870, actively participates in leagues, and the community once thrived with a combined shop and post office, though the latter closed in 2018.

don't chance it on the road...

Starts off looking like a road but quickly turns to gravel. Much better and less rutted than Gilmorton Lane nearby. Don't let a dry ride in the summer fool you though, gets really mucky in wet weather and the pot hole puddles never seem to dry.

Good coffee and cakes, great spot to stop
