About Stoneygate

The listed buildings do the talking. Beaumont Hall, Hastings House and Glebe House are the houses the register names, while St Philip's and St Guthlac carry the church dedications and The Knoll adds a name of its own. No museum is listed here.
The longest name on the register belongs to the Former Home for Penitent Females with Boundary Walls, an institution rather than a residence.
What is the history of Stoneygate?
The record gives Stoneygate no charter and no founding year, only a position inside the City of Leicester in England and a set of buildings old enough to reach the statutory list. Hastings House sits among them. Names carry what dates do not.
St Guthlac and St Philip's stand for the parish side of that past, and The Knoll for its residential one.
