Cropston is a village in Leicestershire, England, on the edge of Charnwood Forest, and lying close to Bradgate Park. The village itself is small, with the older properties close to the crossroads of Reservoir and Station Roads. Near the crossroads there are two pubs, The Bradgate Arms and The Badger's Sett (formerly The Reservoir Inn), a chapel, a post office and a garage. There are a number of cottages dating back to the 16th century. Cropston Reservoir lies between the village and Bradgate Park. The Victorian pumping station next to the reservoir has now been replaced with a more modern facility, but the original engineering can still be seen at the Severn Trent Visitor Centre, which also has an education centre for children. The Rothley Brook flows between Cropston and Thurcaston, and other nearby villages include Rothley, Anstey, Swithland and Newtown Linford.
