THE AREA

Syston is a North East Leicestershire town in the Charnwood district of the county, approximately 5 miles north of Leicester city centre. Earliest records dating back more than 1000 years show a settlement where modern day Syston sits named Sitestone, straddling the old Roman road known as Fosse Way.
The towns oldest building is thought to be the ancient Parish Church of St Peters and St Pauls dating back in part to the 13th Century. The town centre has a good selection of shops, supermarkets, pubs and eateries and local schools include Merton Primary and Wreake Valley Academy with the independent Ratcliffe College being approx 2 miles out of the town. There are a number of industrial sites on the outskirts of the town and a number of residential developments have spread out towards the neighbouring villages over the years.

---------------------------

The A46 Leicester Western by-pass opened in 2006 taking traffic around the town and providing easy access to the motorway network and around the county.
Although it is largely considered a commuter- town for Leicester, much of Syston’s popularity today is due to the A46 Western By-Pass which provides easy access to Melton Mowbray, Loughborough, Nottingham and the M1/M69 motorways for those travelling further afield and with its own mainline railway station, Syston has become a viable location for people considering a base in The Midlands.
