Highfield is a fun place... 80s blues clubs the music scene the carnivals placesto drink eat ... every one who was in the music scene would at one point live in Highfield or hanged out
I lived in Leicester during the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s, a very safe and lovely place then. Sadly it’s changed into a shithole like other parts of the country.
Wow. Who'd have thought. One of the roughest parts of Leicester and hardly a white in sight. I'm really struggling to put myfinger on what makes it so bad. Can anyone help?
I was raised here when it was multicultural my neighbours were Spanish the owners of a hotel opposite were English and on the other side lived a Sikh family with our Caribbean family in the middle. I remember once throwing sand on the Sikh families Chapaties as they cooked in the kitchen through the window I must have been about 4 or 5 years old I got a good hiding from my parents.a lot of people are going to hate me for this but even as a child of immigrants I feel the fact that people don’t want to embrace the culture of that country terrible. That mosque used to be a cinema haven’t been there for more than 30 years it looks like there are Mosques everywhere. I used to sing hymns before school at Uplands infant school and Christmas carols at Christmas do they still do that? You can’t live in a country and not adopt its culture and way of life in my opinion. But anyway who am I to speak.
These houses were once of the working class, lovely Victorian architecture. Now it's a ghetto, drugs, crime, disused cars. I used to park up here - my car was keyed within 3 months.

We all know the reason why our country has become a filthy foreign cesspit in many places but we're not allowed to say it!
I lived in Dronfield Street 50 years ago it was great
now its dangerous there
Know what you mean, I was born an bread in Laurel road. When it was a great place to live, moved faraway when started to go down hill 1970's
I lived in Laurel rd. until 1966. what a differance
Now these funny shaped building, I agree 50 years ago highfields was good
