About Swannington

Swannington is a historic former mining village located in North West Leicestershire, England, with roots dating back to at least 1520, when five mining pits were documented. The village served as a terminus for the Leicester and Swannington Railway, established in 1832 to connect Swannington and the nearby township of Thringstone. The village's church is dedicated to Saint George, likely reflecting its ties to the prominent local figure, Sir George Beaumont of Coleorton Hall. This rich history may influence current planning applications and developments in the area. The settlement has a population of approximately 1,268 (2021 estimate). It sits within the North West Leicestershire district.
