Somerby (Population 439)
In the wolds, south of Melton Mowbray, Somerby is a rural village with shops, a surgery and two pubs, 'The Stilton Cheese' and 'The Parish Brewery'. The latter has a brewery, and produces 'Baz's Bonce Blower' reputed to be one of the strongest ales in the country.

From 1865 to 1913 Somerby was served by the Somerby Gas Light and Coke Company. This was followed by the Somerby Electric Company, which no longer exists. There are buildings in the local ironstone mingled with brick. Somerby Hall, demolished in 1951, was the home of Colonel Fred Burnaby, a traveller in central Asia.

Briefing for the Airborne Attack on Arnhem took place in Somerby. Every September on the Sunday nearest to the anniversary of Arnhem there is a parade and reunion of veterans. The Leicestershire branch of the Parachute Regimental Association have since given a stained glass window, in memory of the 10th Battalion of the Parachute Regiment, and other memorials to the village. An ancient charity, the Somerby Town Estate, originally set up to maintain the church and its clock, and to repair bridges and causeways, paid the schoolmaster before election of a school board in 1875. It still holds the land allocated at the enclosure in 1760. The Quakers, once strong in Somerby, sold their land a few years ago. The church has a bell tower between the chancel and nave. The grave of Somerby resident Dr Benjamin Richardson, a Victorian surgeon, is in the churchyard. He was famous for performing fast operations in the days before anaesthetics!

The closure of Grove Stud, now a retirement home development, has brought to an end the village's previous links with hunting. However, many houses in the village were originally hunting boxes where locals worked as servants and grooms.
