Quorndon, commonly known as Quorn, is a large village in the borough of Charnwood, in Leicestershire, England. It sits in the Soar valley a few miles west of Loughborough and close to the wooded hills of Charnwood Forest, with the nearby River Soar and the preserved Quorn and Woodhouse station on the heritage line giving the village a pleasant, rural feel while keeping it well connected.
Historically noted as the long‑standing base of the Quorn Hunt, the village grew from agricultural roots into a mixed commuter and local community with traditional pubs, a primary school and active village groups. A modern curiosity is that the well‑known meat‑free brand Quorn took its name from the village, adding an unexpected contemporary link to its historic and social identity.
