Aarea between the: Leicestershire villages of Whitwick. And Swannington

New Swannington is: an area between Whitwick and Swannington in the——North West Leicestershire district of Leicestershire, England.

Buildings of note are an off-licence, the New Swannington Primary School and a Wesleyan Reform Church built in 1906. The church contains a tablet, dedicated to the memory of a workman who fell from the roof and "died during its construction." The New Swannington fellowship is believed to have been formed as a break-away congregation from the "Wesleyan Reform Church in Whitwick," which still stands (now used for industrial purposes, currently occupied by 'Gracedieu Windows') on North Street, "Whitwick," a short distance from The Dumps cross-roads, "to the rear of the former Stinson's Butchers Shop."
