Location and Organization
|
|
Leicester is centrally
located, the largest city in the East Midlands and the tenth largest
in the country. Leicester's history goes back to the Iron Age. Its
importance was first recognised by the Romans and later by the Danes,
who used it as a strategic stronghold to control the Midlands. Since
then it has developed into a major commercial and manufacturing centre,
known better for the diversity of its trade than for its dependence
on a single industry. |
