In the 19th century, the town became a spa town and ahead of the development of Coalville, it was the chief town in northwest Leicestershire. During the 19th century, its key industries were ribbon manufacture, coal mining and brickmaking. The town was served by the Leicester to Burton-upon-Trent Line of the Midland Railway from 1849. Many the buildings in Market Street, the town's principal thoroughfare, are timber framed, but the majority of this was hidden by later brick facades. The Bull's Head public house retains its traditional Elizabethan half-timbering, although the majority of this was plastered over some years ago and can now no longer be identified from the street.
