Kimcote and Walton form a small civil parish in the district of Harborough, Leicestershire, in the English Midlands. The two villages sit amid rolling farmland and quiet lanes, with easy access to larger market towns such as Market Harborough and Lutterworth, making the area popular with commuters while retaining a distinctly rural character.

Historically agricultural, the parish still shows traces of older village life in its stone and brick cottages, church buildings and a modest cluster of listed structures, and the community is kept lively by village halls, local clubs and occasional fetes. The mix of traditional farming, small local businesses and a resident commuter population gives the area a quietly steady social and economic rhythm, prized for its scenery and strong sense of local identity.
