Greenhill is a mainly residential ward in the district of North West Leicestershire, in the county of Leicestershire, England, forming part of the outer neighbourhoods of Coalville. It contains a mix of older terraces and more recent housing, local shops, schools and green spaces, and typically functions as a community-focused suburb with accessible everyday amenities rather than a commercial centre.
The area reflects the wider district’s 19th-century coal‑mining and industrial heritage, linked historically to the Leicester and Swannington Railway, and today that past sits alongside pockets of redevelopment and light industry. Good road and bus connections make commuting to Leicester or Burton upon Trent straightforward, while active local clubs and community groups help maintain a strong neighbourhood feel.
