Westcotes
Westcotes is an area to the west of the city of Leicester. It is also known as the West End of Leicester. The area is quite small in comparison with other areas of the city, but it is well known as it has many shops, bars and restaurants and is a popular choice for students and young professionals. ==West End== The West End of Leicester, England is an inner city area just west of the city centre, on the opposite side of the River Soar (past the West Bridge). The main roads in the area are Braunstone Gate, Hinckley Road and Narborough Road. The proximity to De Montfort University makes it a popular student area. Further to the south is the Braunstone estate, and to the west is the Dane Hills area. The area was developed quite late, because the land remained part of two privately held estates until the 1870s.〔Jack Simmons, ''Leicester Past and Present: volume 2, Modern City 1860-1974'' (London, 1974), p. 7〕 and therefore is somewhat less dense than other inner city areas like Highfields and Belgrave.
