Melton Mowbray Visit – 20th June 2025

Melton Mowbray is a charming town famous for its pork pies and stilton cheese. It has a rich history of royal connections, hunting traditions, and rural heritage and the town’s medieval church, historic market, and the fascinating museum are all worthy of a visit. 

Twenty LHG members headed to Melton Mowbray on 20th June on a very sunny day to learn about the history of this interesting Leicestershire town. Thanks to Esther Hancock for organising this visit led by Brian of History Fare.
