THE LOCATION
The village of Netherseal is situated a few miles south-west of Ashby de la Zouch, close to the A444 in South Derbyshire on the banks of the river Mease, overlooking Leicestershire. The village was once part of the district of Seal, which included quite a few settlements, many of which form Netherseal and Overseal in modern times. The \"Seal\" suggests the area was once heavily forested and Nether means 'lower' and Over means 'upper'. Though now a picturesque village (population around 1,000) with many listed buildings, Netherseal was once a thriving mining community with a two-shaft colliery and several related industries. There are good transport links to many Midlands town and cities via the nearby M42 motorway.
