Sought After Village Location

Dates Back to the Late Ninth Century

Dating back to late ninth or early tenth century, ‘Carbi’ is also rich in history and even boasts its very own moated castle, however, it was sadly never to be completed. Work on the castle began around 1480 by Lord William Hastings. In 1483 Lord Hastings was summoned to London for a meeting with King Richard III and never returned. Executed without trial, the building of the castle came to sad and sudden end. The village is steeped in history and there’s even a fabulous community

Local amenities are in abundance within a bustling village centre. There are independent hair and beauty salons, dog grooming, a village physio, post office, a beautiful third generation family run florist and local community groups. When you combine these fantastic transport links with all that’s going on locally, it’s easy to see why Kirby Muxloe is so desirable.

Walks And Green Spaces.

It is well worth getting out and stretching your legs in Kirby and its lush surrounds. Bordering the open countryside there are numerous paths and trails to explore. The village centre offers some fine sights too. Take a trip to the castle ruins or a walk around the mature parklands and adjoining fields which offer views over the village.

Or lose yourself in the peaceful and beautiful green roads of Kirby Fields. Dubbed the ‘second Stoneygate’ in the late 19th century due to the Leicester businessmen requiring country residences, the area is home to some splendid Edwardian and Victorian architecture.
