Newtown Linford, c.1960

More about this scene
This photograph is dominated by a fine example of a stag-head oak, a normal condition, not a dying tree. The speed regulation signs do little to enhance an otherwise idyllic scene on the A50 Leicester-Coalville (Bradgate) Road, looking across to All Saints' Church, standing adjacent to the entrance to Bradgate Park. The church is comparatively plain apart from its large 15th-century traceried window on its south side. The Leicester architects Harry Roberts and John Woodhouse-Simpson added the north aisle and chancel in 1859.
