  • Glen Parva History
    The Parish of Glen Parva Glen Parva is a civil parish in Leicestershire, United Kingdom with a population of over 5,000. It is bordered to the north by Aylestone and to the east by Eyres Monsell and South Wigston. Aylestone and Eyres Monsell are both districts of the City of Leicester. To the south and west it is bordered by open countryside. The Parish Council has its offices at the Memorial Hall on Dorothy Avenue. The Hall was built to commemorate residents of the Parish who fell in World War II. The Grand Union Canal near Glen Parva The Grand Union Canal passes to the south of the village where it runs parallel with the River Sence before the canal turns north, to the west of the village and then runs parallel to the River Soar. The Sence is a tributary of the Soar which in turn is a tributary of the River Trent. History “GLENN-PARVA, a township in Aylestone parish, Leicestershire; on the river Soar and the Union canal, 4 miles SSW of Leicester. Real property, £1,894. Pop., 119. Houses, 30.” (Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales 1870-72) Glen Parva was originally included in the Aylestone Ecclesiastical Parish but after the Local Government Act of 1894 it became a civil parish within the Rural District of Blaby. It is generally accepted that the original settlement of Glen Parva was situated near ‘The Ford’ on the River Sence, an area which is now known locally as ‘Glen Ford’. There is limited evidence of prehistoric activity in this area but excavations in 1962 on the site of a moated enclosure some 150m to the south-east of the area exposed a possible roundhouse, with a hearth, an oven and a cobbled surface associated with Late Bronze Age pottery.
