In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Mythe like this:
MYTHE, an extra-parochial tract in the district of Atherstone and county of Leicester; on the river Anker, 6½ miles S W of Market-Bosworth. Acres, 170. Real property, £484. Pop., 42.
The location is that of Mythe Farm, as marked on the OS First Series map. Additional information about this locality is available for Sheepy Magna
Mythe through time
A Vision of Britain through Time includes a large library of local statistics for administrative units. For the best overall sense of how the area containing Mythe has changed, please see our redistricted information for the modern district of Hinckley and Bosworth. More detailed statistical data are available under Units and statistics, which includes both administrative units covering Mythe and units named after it.
