Location - A Location Steeped in Heritage
33 Park Road enjoys a fascinating setting within the historic village of Moira, with a story that reflects the area's remarkable transformation. Originally known as "Lord Moira's Road," Park Road formed part of the historic industrial tramway network serving the local coal industry. No. 33 was built in 1905 as a middle-management villa associated with Donisthorpe Colliery, with early Ordnance Survey maps showing the property alongside the former Overseal and Moira Railway sidings. The property is also just yards from Engine House Cottage, home to the Grade II-listed Newcomen-type steam beam engine house dating from 1805 a fascinating reminder of Moira's industrial past. Following the closure of Donisthorpe Colliery in 1990, the former mining and railway landscape has been transformed into an attractive network of woodland, wildlife, waterways and recreational trails. For those who enjoy the outdoors, the Ashby Woulds Heritage Trail, Ashby Canal towpath and extensive woodland paths are all close by, providing excellent opportunities for walking, cycling and horse riding, with routes towards Moira Furnace and Conkers Discovery Centre. The surrounding natural environment is home to an abundance of wildlife, including muntjac deer, rabbits, owls, , cuckoos and ducks also regularly seen. Overall a fantastic location combining period character, fascinating industrial heritage and access to beautiful countryside and outdoor pursuits.
