All Saints Church, Rotherby, Leic's
Ten miles north-west of Leicester is the small village of Rotherby sited in the Wreake Valley. Having a ‘by’ in the village name like so many others in the area such as Frisby, Brooksby, and Hoby etc probably means that the area was most likely settled by the Danes. The village was mentioned in the Domesday Book as Redebi, which is from the Danish for ‘cross’. Perhaps an earlier structure stood on the site when the Danes arrived and colonized the area as the present stone church is far later.
