Ibstock, Administrative division in North West Leicestershire, United Kingdom.
Ibstock sits in the East Midlands, three miles south-west of Coalville and twelve miles west of Leicester, with a population of 7,615 residents.
The Domesday Book of 1086 documented Ibstock as a hamlet containing six ploughlands, with Robert Garshull serving as the first recorded Lord of the Manor.
The parish church of Saint Denys, constructed in the early 14th century, features a decorated Gothic structure with a west tower and recessed spire.
The village maintains manufacturing facilities that produce tiles, bricks, boots, shoes, and operates light engineering enterprises to support the local economy.
