Worth a visit

Located on the Ashby-de-la-Zouch Canal, this tranquil spot provides a gateway to the Bosworth Battlefield through Ambion Wood.

The tree that was felled had been the village Christmas tree with lights etc for years, and this seemed a good way to commemorate both it and the mining in the area. Lots of quiet lanes round about and the old Fosse Way can be found nearby.

Beware of the Sheep!!!

The charming village of Monks Kirby is set in a nice shallow valley, with only about two hundred houses. It is small and picturesque. It is a historical hamlet with St. Edith’s church in the village going back to the 11th century, and this is the dominant architectural feature in the area with its large tower. The lanes around the village are ideal for cycling, they are quieter than you might think considering their proximity to the M6.

Nice cafe next to canal. (See Google for opening times.)

Find a nice cadence and bare in mind the slight incline after the S bend

After the tree was felled at Stoney Stanton, the parish council decided to do something with the remaining trunk. After consulting with residents in the area, it was decided that a sculpture of a quarryman would be made out of the trunk.
