Trams in Belgrave

The Belgrave to the Clock Tower in the centre of Leicester was one of, if not the, first tram routes in Leicester. Originally horse-drawn, the route was converted to electricity in 1904. The first electric tram service from Belgrave first ran on 21st April, 1904. The tram-sheds at Belgrave were just before the bend on Thurcaston Road, opposite Belgrave Hall.
