Belgrave Hall Museum sits in the Belgrave area of Leicester, a northern neighbourhood with a strong community identity and a mix of residential streets and cultural sites. The museum occupies a late seventeenth-century Queen Anne-style house, one of the more complete examples of its period surviving in the city, set within walled gardens that have been maintained in a period-appropriate style.
What to See at Belgrave Hall
The hall and its grounds give visitors a sense of domestic life across several centuries. The interior is arranged with period furnishings and household objects, tracing how the building and its occupants changed from the early eighteenth century onward. The walled gardens adjoining the hall are kept in a traditional manner and are open to the public, making them a quiet place to visit independently of the museum itself.
Getting There
Belgrave Hall Museum is managed by Leicester City Council as part of the city’s museum service. The site sits on Church Road in Belgrave, a short distance north of Leicester city centre, and is accessible by local bus routes running along the main roads through the neighbourhood.
