Waterside Centre (Leicester)

The Waterside Centre has an attractive location beside the River Soar in Leicester.

It can be reached by a back road opposite Abbey Park, off Abbey Park Road.

For some years the Waterside Centre was the starting point for boat trips, particularly on the narrow boat the Duke of Bridgwater. There were also children's events featuring Rosie and Jim.

Unfortunately, the company running the boat trips ceased trading in the early 2000s, but hopefully it will not be too long before another company takes over.
