More about this scene
Excellent 18th-century houses are to be found on the Leicester Road, but here we see a contrast between the thatched cottages of pre-18th-century date and the Rose and Crown pub, an early roadhouse. The main road which neatly divides the two Kibworths was not put in until 1810, having previously followed the rather tortuous line of the main village street. Since 1955 little has changed in the view, apart from the pub, which adopted a somewhat brighter image.
