Hermitage is a ward in the district of North West Leicestershire, sitting on the edge of the former coalfield town of Coalville in Leicestershire, England. It combines suburban housing and pockets of public green space, with easy road links into the surrounding towns and the motorway network, and lies close enough to the emerging landscapes of the National Forest to benefit from local walking routes and tree‑planting projects.
Locally the area bears the imprint of coal‑mining history and 20th‑century industry, but recent years have seen modest regeneration, community‑run facilities and a mix of small shops and light industrial employers. Socially it’s a typical post‑industrial Midlands ward where active neighbourhood groups and council services play an important role in day‑to‑day life and local politics.
