Broom Leys is an electoral ward in North West Leicestershire, in the county of Leicestershire, England. It sits on the edge of Coalville and benefits from good road links towards Leicester and the M1, with the patchwork of former coal workings and newer green planting connecting it to the nearby National Forest.
The area reflects the district’s mining past and ongoing regeneration, with a mix of traditional terraced housing and more recent residential and light-industrial development. Local life is shaped by community halls, sports clubs and retail and employment centres nearby, so you get a blend of commuter households, long-standing families and modest local industry rather than any single dominant cultural or economic identity.
