This is how the village layout looks today.
Countesthorpe is south of Leicester. This Multimap link shows our comparative location.
Thanks to A-Z Map Company for allowing me to display this image.
This is a Google Map satellite view of the village:
Here's a few facts and figures to get you started. Links to the Leicestershire County Council website which has some stats to bore you with on the village:
Blaby District Community Profiles - Gives demographics on population, ethnicity, education, health, travel and more.
Countesthorpe Parish Council does a better job of copiling these than me!! To see local events, visit their website Events calendar
I moved to the village a few years ago and have lived in around Leicester all my life....but where in the world are you viewing from?
Why not put a little link on this world map so we can see where all ex-thorpies, niffy's or friends are viewing this website from.
