About Shenton - Planning Applications & Local Development

Shenton, a quaint village in Leicestershire's Hinckley and Bosworth district, is located just 2.20 miles south-west of Market Bosworth. This predominantly agricultural settlement, now part of the parish of Dadlington and Sutton Cheney, features several farms and has retained much of its historical charm, with land held by the same family since 1625. As a designated conservation area, Shenton showcases its picturesque Victorian bridge over the Sence Brook, although its flat terrain makes it prone to flooding. With a small population of 154 recorded in 1931, the village has experienced minimal modern development, maintaining its estate village character. It sits within the Sutton Cheney district.

Property prices in Shenton show an average sale price of £243,610, based on 50 recent transactions recorded by HM Land Registry. There are currently no active flood warnings for the Shenton area, indicating a relatively low flood risk at present. This is a positive factor for both existing residents and those considering property purchases or new developments.

In terms of safety, there were no crimes reported in the immediate area during the most recent reporting period (May 2026). This makes Shenton a particularly low-crime area, which is often reflected in its desirability and property values.
