Stonebow Village is a civil parish in Borough of Charnwood, Leicestershire, England. [1] [2] In 2021 the parish had a population of 9. [3]

The parish was created on 1 April 2019, from parts of the parishes of Shepshed and Hathern and part of the unparished area of Loughborough. [4] [5] It is bordered to the west by the parish of Shepshed (the M1 motorway forming the boundary), to the north by Hathern, and to the east and south by Loughborough. [1]

The Garendon Park Development, also known as the West of Loughborough Sustainable Urban Extension, is a proposed development of 3,200 houses, with associated shopping facilities, schools, sporting facilities and employment areas, in the parish. It received outline planning permission in July 2018, [6] [7] and as of 2024 is being marketed by its developers under the name Garendon Country Park. [8]

As of October 2024 there are 13 listed buildings (the Triumphal Arch at grade I, [9] the Temple of Venus at grade II* [10] and 11 at grade I), one listed park and garden (Garendon at grade II), [11] and one scheduled monument (the remains of the Cistercian Garendon Abbey) [12] in the parish. All are within Garendon Park, the grounds of the former Garendon Hall.

The highest point in the parish is Bellevue Hill at 68 m (223 ft), in the north, which has been described as "offer[ing] stunning panoramic views of the surrounding countryside". [13]

Stonebow Primary School, despite its name, is not in the parish of Stonebow Village but is in an adjacent unparished area of Loughborough. [14]
