Croxton Kerrial is a small village and civil parish in the borough of Melton, Leicestershire, sitting close to the Lincolnshire border at the edge of the Vale of Belvoir. It occupies a gently rolling agricultural landscape of hedged fields and lanes, with countryside views and easy commuting links to nearby towns such as Melton Mowbray and Grantham.
The settlement has medieval roots reflected in its name and a compact core of traditional cottages, a parish church and village hall; agriculture still underpins the local economy while many residents commute for work. An active community life - local clubs, occasional fetes and village sport - together with listed buildings and rural field patterns gives Croxton Kerrial a strong sense of continuity and village identity.
