The Soar Valley in the heart of Leicester shire, United Kingdom is the river basin of the River Soar, which rises just southwest of Leicester and flows northeast through Charnwood before meeting the River Trent at Trent Lock on the Nottinghamshire border.
The Soar Valley embraces the large villages of Quorn, Mountsorrel, Barrow upon Soar, Birstall, Rothley and Sileby and a number of smaller communities all on or near the River Soar as it flows from Leicester to Loughborough in Leicester shire. The valley area edges onto Charnwood Forest and the only duel tracked preserved main railway line in Great Britain, home of the Great Central Railway. The new and old parts of the A6 forms a spine through the area.
