Blaby

Blaby lies just southwest of Leicester, accessible via M1 Junction 21 and the A5460. The M69 provides another route from Coventry, whilst the A426 runs north-south through the area. Local journeys typically involve short drives to Leicester city centre or nearby villages like Whetstone and Narborough, with the A563 ring road useful for bypassing Leicester traffic. The town centre preserves its medieval street pattern around the market square, where weekly markets have run since 1285.
