Loughborough is a prosperous university and market town, located between Nottingham and Leicester. The town has an immediate population of close to 70,000 and a student population of 15,000 with a catchment population of over 150,000.
Located at least 20 minutes drive from any major retail centre, The Rushes is ideally placed to meet the shopping needs of this sizeable catchment population as well as those living further afield.
The Signaler

John Atkin, an internationally acclaimed, award-winning artist, was funded by the Henry Moore Foundation and is a proud alumnus of Loughborough University.
