Soar and canal
The River Soar and the Grand Union Canal share a corridor through the west of the city. They draw two parallel lines that braid around Castle Gardens and the Bede Park meadows.

The map
Leicester Map Poster & Print
From above, Leicester shows a tight knot of old streets around the Clock Tower. An inner ring road loops around it, and radial roads fan out toward the county. On the western side the River Soar and the Grand Union Canal run beside each other, splitting and rejoining. Between them they form a thin green and blue seam that separates the centre from the western suburbs.
The city goes back to Roman Ratae, and traces of that grid still sit near the Jewry Wall. In 2012 archaeologists found the remains of Richard III under a council car park close to the cathedral. The site is now a visitor centre, set among the same lanes that appear on the map as a dense cluster of short, angled blocks.
A Leicester map poster also shows how the city loosens toward its edges. Terraced streets give way to Victoria Park and the university campuses to the south-east. Along Belgrave Road to the north, the long straight line of the Golden Mile runs out of the centre. Each area has its own pattern, and at poster scale they fit together like neighbouring fabrics.

Inner ring road
A continuous loop of dual carriageway surrounds the historic centre. It gives the poster a clear frame, with the older, finer street pattern held inside it.
Victoria Park
A large open lawn south-east of the centre, sitting between the two universities. It is one of the few wide blank spaces in an otherwise closely built street plan.

Why Leicester
A map that means something
Leicester tends to be the city people studied in, grew up in or moved to for work. The map picks out the ring road, the river and the terraced streets that make up those years without spelling them out.
You can change the title and subtitle to a street name, a graduation year or a family date, and set your own coordinates line. Then pick one of the five styles: Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand.
