Measham, with a population of just over 5,000, is a former mining village (Measham Colliery closed in 1986) in the Leicestershire coalfield. Especially on a dull day it is, in all fairness, a rather drab looking place with no real centre that straggles along the former A453 road. Here on Bosworth Road, the White Hart is a traditional friendly back street local.
