Market Bosworth is famously near to the site of the decisive final battle of the Wars of the Roses.
The Battle of Bosworth occurred just south of the town in 1485, marking the conclusive and significant clash in the Wars of the Roses between the House of Lancaster and the House of York. This historic engagement ultimately led to the demise of King Richard III.
The town is also known for its beautiful flower displays in the Leicestershire in Bloom competition.
