Enderby is a quaint little village in the middle of Leicestershire, England. It is situated on the south-eastern outskirts of the city of Leicester.

Ordnance Survey national grid reference SK 536 994
The village centre consists of a number of old and very narrow roads, with more recent housing developments to the south and west.
The parish church dates from 1868 and replaced an earlier church believed to have been originally constructed between 1230 and 1270.
A disused railway line which used to serve a quarry to the north of the village, has since become the western edge of the village.
Despite retaining a traditional village centre, Enderby has excellent road links to the rest of the country, being situated between the M69 and the M1.
To the south-east of the village lies Carlton Park, a business park that includes the headquarters of Alliance & Leicester, who employ over 1,800 people locally.
Nearby villages include Narborough, Huncote and Thurlaston.
