Measham
Measham is a village on the Leicestershire-Staffordshire border, located just off the A42 just south of Ashby-de-la-Zouch.
The village lies near to the heart of the National Forest.
Nearby is the hamlet of Willesley where there was once a stately home, the grounds of which are now a fishing lake, golf course and scout campsite. Other local villages include Oakthorpe and Packington.
A type of pottery known as Meashamware is named after the village, although it is actually produced in Stoke Gresley in Staffordshire
