Tilton on the Hill and Halstead form a small civil parish in the Harborough district of Leicestershire, England. Tilton on the Hill sits up on one of the higher ridges in the county and enjoys wide, rural views across the surrounding vale towards Rutland and the Vale of Belvoir, while Halstead is a quieter, more compact settlement nearby.
Historically agricultural, the parish retains traditional stone and brick cottages and a medieval parish church, with farming still important alongside a growing number of commuters to nearby towns such as Market Harborough and Leicester. Community life is typical of small Leicestershire villages, centred on local events, village groups and the village hall, giving it a close-knit, rural character despite relatively easy road links.
