The village of Osgathorpe is a small rural settlement in North West Leicestershire, Leicestershire, England. Its name, with the familiar "-thorpe" ending, hints at Old Norse/Old English farming origins and the place still feels traditionally rural, with a parish church, village hall and a scatter of stone and brick cottages forming a compact community core.
Over the centuries the local economy has been shaped by agriculture and the nearby mining history of the Coalville area, and today that legacy sits alongside small farms and residents who commute to larger towns. Osgathorpe is within easy reach of market towns such as Coalville and Ashby-de-la-Zouch, giving it a quiet, well‑connected village appeal.
