Twycross
Twycross is a small village and civil parish in Leicestershire, England, on the A444 road. The civil parish includes the hamlet called Little Orton, as well as Twycross Zoo, and the selective, private Twycross House School.
Administratively, Twycross forms part of the Hinckley and Bosworth district. It is named 'Twycross' because its centre lies at the intersection of three roads. The A444 connects it to Burton-on-Trent and Coventry and the B4116/B4114 to Birmingham.
