Corner Cottage, Buckminster Road, Coston, Melton Mowbray, LE14 2RP

This property is located in Coston, a rural locality within the Melton district of Leicestershire, close to the River Eye and surrounded by agricultural land.

Coston lies within the parish that includes Garthorpe and is part of the Melton district in Leicestershire, England. It is situated about five miles east of the market town of Melton Mowbray. The River Eye, a slender and slow‑flowing waterway, passes through the area and is known to flood periodically, particularly within Melton Mowbray. The river’s flood risk is largely attributed to fine sediments from agricultural fields, which are a major source of the channel’s supply. The surrounding landscape is primarily farmland, with pasturing sheep and cows common to the district. Notable dairy products such as Stilton and Red Leicester cheeses originated from villages and dairy farms within the Eye basin. The River Eye meanders through north‑east Leicestershire, crossing only a handful of villages and towns, and its primary wooded area is the Fox Covert.
