LOCATION
Barton in the Beans is located just to the North of Market Bosworth. It lies in some of West Leicestershire's prettiest countryside with some lovely walks from the village towards Congerstone and Shackerstone. The village has a rich history. In the 18th century, it was an important centre for the Baptist Church and the Minister of Barton was the notable clock maker, Samuel Deacon (1746-1816). Market Bosworth is one of the most well regarded and exclusive towns in West Leicestershire. The town services a wide area and is locally considered to be one of the most desirable locations to live. There is a traditional market every Wednesday as well as a Farmers Market that is held on the fourth Sunday of every month. The town is home to one of the area's leading private schools, The Dixie Grammar, and there is also a High School rated by OFSTED as "outstanding" and Primary School. Market Bosworth is a thriving community and offers a generous range of amenities including a library, churches, independent retailers, a Co-Op and restaurants. Local attractions include the Bosworth Country Park, the Ashby Canal and the Bosworth Battlefield Heritage site.
