The Market Bosworth Society was re-formed in 2005 to provide a focus for residents interested in the history, environment and future of the town.
Initial work concentrated on preparing a Character Statement for the central core of Market Bosworth, which is a Conservation Area. This Statement has been submitted to the Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council for approval, and will form a reference point against which future applications for development can be assessed. The full statement can be accessed on this site. (see Useful Links below)

Although most of the initial effort was devoted to the Conservation Area Character Statement, it is intended that the Society will have a much wider role in future. The award of a significant grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund will enable the Society to carry out a number of projects that were previously held back for lack of funds.

We hope to create a "Virtual Heritage Centre" to make photographs, maps and documents relating to Market Bosworth available on-line.

We intend to record interviews with residents who have a knowledge of the history of Market Bosworth.

We intend to organise a number of talks, walks and other social events for members, including visits to houses and properties of historic interest which may not be generally open to the public.
