The city of Leicester, in the English East Midlands, and surrounding areas is described in the Sheet Explanation. To the west of Leicester, the wide floodplain of the River Soar skirts the hilly basement rocks which form Charnwood Forest and Mountsorrel. To the east, scarps and gentle dip slopes form the wolds which are typical of the Lower Jurassic landscapes of the Midlands.
