  • Church Langton Settlement Profile Introduction
    Church Langton Settlement Profile Introduction General Location: Church Langton village (lying north) along with East Langton village (lying south) both constitute the civil parish of East Langton (hereby referred to as ‘Church Langton’), as well as both being part of five villages known collectively as ‘the Langtons’ (with Tur Langton to the north, West Langton to the west, and Thorpe Langton to the East). Beyond the parish’s borders with other Langton villages, the village also borders Great Bowden to the south and Stonton Wyville to the north-east. Church Langton lies 5 miles north of Market Harborough, and 4 miles east of Kibworth with the A6 passing less than 1 mile south of the parish. The 13th century-constructed Church of St Peter is the parish’s most distinguished feature; a collegiate-type church of strikingly large proportions that sits 400ft above sea-level whilst also forming the parish’s historic separation. Overall, the parish is linear in form, stretching for almost 2 miles (north-south), with most community services and facilities being centrally located. East Langton is separated from Church Langton by Langton Road that dissects the parish into a northerly and southerly area. Langton Brook runs west-east through the southern tip of the parish, before joining the River Welland to the east. The East Midlands Trains line also crosses the southerly tip of the parish in a similar movement. The village of Church Langton is identified as a Selected Rural Village in the Core Strategy and as such, is outlined as a settlement that would potentially benefit from the support of limited development such as rural housing.

  • Langtons' and District Newsletter
    Langtons’ and District Newsletter Spring Edition 2020 February Fill Dyke An old saying goes, "February fill dyke, be black or be it white; Be it white, 'tis better to like." This roughly means that rain and snow are both welcome in February, although snow is preferable. Well it’s certainly been black this year. Harborough District Council are encouraging parish councils to put in place Community Response Plans in the event of an incident such as severe weather. Tur Langton Parish Council has theirs and East Langton Parish Council’s is nearly completed (see p 7). The plan provides a guide as to how and where the local community may support the Emergency services in terms of information and providing predetermined resources where appropriate. Let’s hope we never have to use it. Keep safe. Roz Folwell Stonton Wyville taken by G. Devereaux-Batchelor Printed by Omniprint, Market Harborough 1 2 Church Langton CE (AIDED) Primary School Young Voices The pupils in years five and six were very fortunate to have the opportunity to perform as part of a six thousand strong choir at the Young Voices concert at the Birmingham Arena. Supported by a very keen team of teachers, the children sang with a wide range of acts including Tony Hadley and alongside street dance group Urban Sounds. This is part of our ongoing opportunities for the pupils to take part in musical performances to different audiences. As part of the Spark Festival, a celebration of the arts taking place in Leicester during February, we were delighted to welcome an IndoJazz band to perform to the children.
