1662 House

Highlight • Monument

Shearsby is a small village with no less than 9 Grade II listed buildings. One of the characteristics of the village is the locally hand-made bricks used to build some of the old cottages, which can be identified by their variation in size and shape.

Perched on a high mound, Shearsby boasts the picturesque All Saints Church and an adjacent charming timber-framed thatched house dating back to 1669. The village hosts an annual music festival on the green.

In its history, Shearsby had a mineral salt spring, leading to the establishment of the Bath Spa Hotel just outside the village.

Church of All Saints, Peatling Magna

Highlight • Historical Site

Peatling Magna, formerly known as "Great Petlyng" and later as "Great Peatling," is a village in the Harborough district of south Leicestershire.

The village's notable landmark is the Church of All Saints, primarily built during the 14th and 15th centuries, featuring fine examples of carved woodwork from different periods.

In 1265, Peatling Magna gained national attention when, after the Battle of Evesham, the villagers refused to cooperate with the victorious royal forces, citing concerns for the welfare of the realm. This led to a court appearance recorded in the Plea Rolls of 1266, highlighting the village's resistance and reflecting communal ideas at the smallest village level in 13th-century England.
