Haymarket Memorial Clock Tower

Erected in 1868, the Clock Tower is a major landmark of the town. Various meetings and exchange of agricultural products took place here before the tower was built. The tower was built as a pedestrian refuge and bears the statues of four local personalities. It is considered to be a memorial for these benefactors. The tower was designed by a young architect called Joseph Goddard. Made of ketton stone with a granite base, the tower stands as a marvelous piece of art in the town. It is one of the listed heritage monuments of Britain.

Baggrave Hall

This is the kind of house you dream of staying in! Baggrave Hall is an 18th-century, Grade II listed country house in Hungarton, Leicestershire. This structure was constructed during the 1750s, with a slate hipped roof and chimney stacks. On further exploration, an additional wing in red brick was found to have been made in 1776. With a large expanse of grass covering the grounds of the house, this site belonged to the Leicester Abbey before the Dissolution of Monasteries. Sadly, the fabric of this building was majorly damaged in 1988-90, whilst the house belonged to an overseas company controlled by Asil Nadir. Along with stonework and wall damage, floors and ceilings were also ruined. Thus, while restoration work has been promised by the current owner, the closest one can get to viewing the house is from the public footpath that runs outside the premises.

Mountsorrel Cross

The Mountsorrel Cross, located some 250 meters (820 feet) away from the St Leonard's church of Swithland, is a Grade I heritage structure dating back to the Middle Ages. The medieval structure is made of stone and has rough carving of bats with their wings extended, little people and grotesque heads. Initially, it was located on the Main street in Mountsorrel but was later moved to its current position in the late 18th century.

Goadby Hall

Situated in the heart of the village of Goadby Marwood is Goadby Hall, a majestic Grade II listed country house flanked with well-maintained gardens. This establishment was constructed in 17th Century, and was designed in the peculiar Palladian architectural style. This opulent house was once owned by the Duke of Rutland, and at one point, was also the residence of the Manners family. At present, this colossal property is privately owned.

Old Hall, Asfordby

Enveloped by the rustic landscapes of Asfordby is Old Hall, a stately manor house. This establishment was constructed circa 1620 from red bricks in the unique Jacobean architectural style. The house is crowned with three gables cloaked with beautiful Swithland slate. Adorned with sash windows and Tuscan pilasters, this Grade II listed structure is truly an architectural jewel. The environs of the house consist of a barn, coach house, stable and well pump.
