More about Glenfield Leicestershire
Glenfield, archaically known as Glenfields, is a
suburb of Leicester, England. It is part of the Blaby
district, constituting a civil parish, and has a
population of about 10,000.
The town is directly to the west of Leicester and is
just off junction 21A of the M1 motorway. It is the site
of Glenfield Hospital, the headquarters of
Leicestershire County Council, and of Leicestershire
Fire and Rescue Service.
The majority of the village was built in the 1920s-50s,
when the Faire Estate was built. In the 80s and 90s
another large estate was built on former farm land
behind Ellis Park.
On Station Road there is a large Co-Op superstore with
petrol station, Glenfield Televisions, Glenfield
Kitchens, Numark Chemists and a few other small shops.
There are also shops around the Square, Stamford Street
and Faire Road.
The heart of the community is around the Square, with St
Peter's Church (CofE), the church hall and the post
office on Church Street, the Methodist Church and Hall
and the public library (offering generous Internet
access) just inside Station Road, and Park House (parish
council), the Memorial Hall, Scout Hut, Playground,
Glenfield Primary School and the nursary school all
located just inside Stamford Street.
Stamford Street was the home of painter Brian Organ.
Salcombe Drive was the home of the pundit Graham
Barnfield.
There are a variety of pubs, take-aways, restaurants and
hotels in the Glenfield area. In the village centre, The
Nag's Head and The Forge (formerly the Griffin) serve
pub food. The Railway Inn (near to the site of the
former Glenfield Station) is also a popular pub. There
are Chinese and fish and chip takeaways in the village.
On Dominion Road, there is The Dominion Pub, with Fish
and Fry and Trodo's Taverna (Greek) Restaurant directly
opposite. Near County Hall is The Gynsills, a large pub
and hotel. Heading out towards Groby is The Brant, a
traditional English Hotel and pub serving food.
Glenfield has its own village newspaper, The Glenfield
Gazette, and the parish council own several areas of
recreational land, including Ellis Park, Station Park
and the Playing Fields. Near to the Brant is the
"Millennium Green", which is managed by a local trust.
Glenfield is only 3 miles away from Leicester, and 1 1/2
miles from the Beaumont Leys Shopping Centre. The M1 can
be easily accessed at Junction 21a to the South of the
village (Southbound only), which makes Fosse Park
accessible. The M1 North can be reached in minutes along
the A50 towards Markfield, Groby and Coalville.
The A46 leads around the north of Leicester, with access
to Anstey and then the A6 to Loughborough.
Glenfield was the site of the first station from
Leicester West Bridge on the Leicester and Swannington
Railway opened in July 1832 as the world's third steam
railway. Just before reaching the station the line
passed through Glenfield Tunnel, which at 1 mile 36
yards long was at the time the world's longest railway
tunnel and was built by Robert Stephenson. The tunnel
can still be seen.
