Summary

There is a history of Leicester that is hidden from view, or simply not recognised today because it is so familiar. There are Norman and medieval arches below landmark buildings, mosaics beneath the Central Ring Road and the remains of the town’s first railway station just minutes away from a major hotel. ‘Secret Leicester’ goes behind the facades of the familiar to discover the lesser-known artefacts of Leicester’s fascinating past, brought to life through revealing images of the past and the present.
