Beaumont Leys, built and designed for only one reason – to house the criminal population of Leicester. I have seen a fair few council estates in my time, but Beaumont Leys takes the award for the worst, and most lawless. One could describe it as a low security prison. I lived there for two years in the early ’90’s with my family and I can assure you all that the **** movement was alive and well as far back as 1992.
Tracksuit clad, four foot high, skinhead hair cuts, foul mouthed brats, would pelt our house with bricks, rocks, and bottles. I guess that being middle class, and home tutored is not a positive thing to be in a place like Beaumont Leys. Crime is a way of life on the Heatherbrook estate. I challenge you to find me one single decent family, that isn’t either unemployed, has a criminal record, or even legally owns the contents of their dirty council home.
The residents of this delightful estate have a novel way of disposing of their rubbish – throw it over their fence into Castle hill country park behind (to be set alight later by the smaller roaming packs of ***** in training). The country park is also littered with burnt out cars, and motorbikes. The **** population will usually be found in the Beaumont Center close by. (It has to be close, so they can push their shopping home in a stolen Tesco trolley, which is then also dumped in the country park). I could go on for hours about this god forsaken hole, but I wont. If you live in Beaumont Leys, may god have mercy on your soul.
