A Few Words About Leicester

It is the county town of Leicestershire, situated in the centre of England, with a population of around 300,000 people according to council stats.

The Romans referred to Leicester as “Ratae Coritanorum” which they founded along the Fosse Way, which was a Roman road between Exeter and Lincoln, in 50 AD.  After the Romans, it was one of the largest and most important towns in the Danelaw.  

The name is said to have come from the word ‘castra’ (meaning ‘camp’) and ‘Ligore’ meaning people or ‘dwellers’ of the River Legro’.

Leicester lost it ‘city’ status in the 11th century due to the power struggles between the church and the aristocracy (but this was re-granted in 1919).  It boomed during the years leading up to the Industrial Revolution, as it was known for the production of footwear and clothing.  This was spurred on by the building of the canals, and later the railways.

Industries include engineering, which is strengthened through links with Leicester University and De Montfort University, also continuing textiles, clothing and shoes.
