Pitt Gardens At Smeeton Westerby, around 1910 (Ref:M.H1.1991.111.0)
Smeeton Westerby lies 6 and a half miles north west of Market Harborough in the midst of the beautiful Fernie country. This photo shows an unusual view of gardens. Smeeton Westerby was once two separate hamlets and merged into one agricultural village. It was closely associated with Kibworth in the past and only became a separate parish in 1852. Christ Church, behind the gardens, was built in 1849.
