Aylestone Meadows, Leicestershire

Description

Meadows rich with wild life, and a rare taste of rural Leicestershire within the city limits. The River Soar attracts kingfishers and cute water-loving furries.

The meadows are under threat of development as they've been earmarked for a sports centre.
