Belgrave Hall is a remarkable 18th-century building and home to several families as a dwelling.

Built-in 1709 by Edmund Cradock, a Leicester hosiery merchant, the building was completed in 1713. unfortunately, Edmund and his dear wife Ann died only two years after its completion.

The house fronts onto Church Road, on a site adjacent to Belgrave Church. The house is a three-storey building, and you can still see today the lead rainwater heads with the Cradock family crest, some of which have a 1709 date and others with 1713.

Belgrave Hall has been home to many wealthy business people over the years, and all the owners have played a crucial part in the community's economic, social and charitable life.

The family of John Ellis purchased Belgrave Hall in 1845 and was noted for their excellent work in the community. Ellis, a wealthy businessman, brought the railway to Leicester in 1833.
