Great job whoever wrote this article. I live in Leicester and can see old John on the western horizon. It looks particularly lovely lately with the rape fields in bloom. Hopefully this can be made longer in the future - Bradgate visitors centre is a veritable mine of information. Ivesfreak 21:24, 18 May 2005 (UTC)

Apologies for the addition of public transport links, but as a non-car owner, I'm so tired of seeing directions to places that assume that everyone has a car.

[edit] Error in dates

...the construction of Bradgate House was begun in 1490 by Sir John Grey, 7th Baron Ferrers of Groby, the husband of Elizabeth Woodville...

This is an error, as Sir John Grey died on 22 February 1461. Webhat 04:55, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

... and as Sir John Grey of Groby was not Baron Ferrers of Groby. I've removed the date 1490. Xn4 01:39, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
