Blaby District
The neighbouring districts are Hinckley and Bosworth, Charnwood, Leicester, Oadby and Wigston, Harborough and Rugby.[2] In 1872 sanitary districts were established, giving public health and local government responsibilities for rural areas to the existing boards of guardians of poor law unions.[5] In 1974, under the Local Government Act 1972, the area was reconstituted as a non-metropolitan district called Blaby.The house was bought in 1936 for £4,250 by Blaby Rural District Council to serve as its headquarters and has been significantly extended since then.The development in Lubbesthorpe, approved in January 2014, is located to land west of Thorpe Astley, divided by the M1.
