Littlethorpe One-Place Study. 
Image: Photo showing a road, on which there is one car heading away and one car approaching, entering the scene from the right and curving round to disappear behind a clump of trees further away on the right. At the middle of the bend, the road is met by a smaller road from the left; in the area enclosed by the roads are houses. The main road has a wide grass verge on the right, and a footpath on the left with a mown grassy area, with a few trees and a sign saying 'Littleborough', to the left of that. The photo was taken during the Winter as the trees are leafless; the sky above is blue with white clouds, and the sun is casting long shadows. 
One-Place Studies, where family history and local history unite.

After speaking to a number of residents of #Whetstone and #Littlethorpe over the past few days, I feel in order to restore confidence in the villages we need a more radical solution than just dredging the brook and clearing the drains. blaby.greenparty.org.uk/2025/01/11/f...
