Narborough Road is a street in the Westcotes and Rowley Fields districts of the city of Leicester, UK. Following the route of the Ancient Roman Fosse Way, today it is the principal route between Leicester City Centre and the M1 and M69 motorways and a busy residential and shopping street. In February 2016, it was named the UK's "most diverse" road in a research project by the London School of Economics (LSE).
