Goadby Marwood

Goadby Marwood is a village in the north of the English county of Leicestershire. It is about six miles north of Melton Mowbray and a few miles from the Vale of Belvoir.

Most of the houses are built from locally-mined ironstone and some date from the 17th century. There is only one road into, and out of, the village. Goadby Marwood has no pub or shop, but it does have a post office with limited opening hours.
