Where we work
Leicestershire coverage
From the city to the National Forest, we cover the county's LE postcodes. Each town moves a
little differently — here is how we read the main ones.
Leicester
LE1–LE5 The city itself — Victorian terraces in Clarendon Park and Highfields, flats in the centre and the Cultural Quarter, and the big student patches around the two universities. Loading here is about permit parking, one-way systems and end-of-tenancy timing more than open drives.
Loughborough
LE11–LE12 The university town at the top of the county on the Soar and the Grand Union — student and family moves in equal measure, terraces near the campus, newer estates towards Shepshed, and the A6/M1 J23 close by for a quick run.
Hinckley
LE10 Down in the south-west by the M69 and the Warwickshire border — a market town of terraces, semis and growing estates, with the A5 (Watling Street) and easy motorway access shaping a lot of the inter-county moves.
Melton Mowbray
LE13–LE14 The rural east — the pork-pie-and-Stilton market town and the villages of the Wolds around it. Farmhouses, barn conversions and cottages down narrow lanes, where access and a longer run into open country are the norm.
Market Harborough
LE16 The elegant south-eastern town on the Welland — Georgian houses, period conversions and commuter families on the Midland Main Line to London, with village moves out towards the Northamptonshire border.
Coalville & the Forest
LE67 The old mining town and the National Forest north-west — Coalville, Ibstock and Ashby-de-la-Zouch, ex-industrial terraces and new-build estates, with the A511 and M1 J22 for the runs across the county.
