Coleorton Wood belongs to the parish!

Coleorton Wood was officially handed over to Coleorton Parish by Leicester County Council on 21st January 2012. This has preserved the wood for the use of the general public and makes sure there will be no residential or industrial building there and we, our children and grandchildren can continue to enjoy this beautiful spot.

About Coleorton Parish

Coleorton Parish includes the villages of Peggs Green, Griffydam, Farm Town, Church Town, Gelsmoor as well as Coleorton and Coleorton Moor.Because the parish is so spread out with no defined centre the Parish Council decided a web site was a good way to communicate with parishioners. We hope the web site will become a centre of information about activities, events and clubs in the area, a directory for local businesses and services, public transport, a platform for people who would like to share their enthusiasm for local history, the environment, etc.
