Wymeswold (/waɪmzwɒld/) is a village and civil parish in the Charnwood district of Leicestershire, England.
There used to be a school in the village run by Thomas Potter in the nineteenth century on Elm Street.
The village was formerly the site of RAF Wymeswold, a memorial to which can be seen on the wall of Wymeswold pharmacy remembers when a Wellington bomber on a night training exercise crashed up on a hill nearby, just two miles from the airfield, on 25 November 1943.
The Wymeswold airstrip still remains, although disused, is now used as a track for performance car 'experience' days, although there is some local opposition to this because of the noise.
The village has a greengrocer and general store, specialised pine furniture and gift shop, two pubs (The Three Crowns and The Windmill) and a restaurant (Hammer and Pincers).
At the southern edge of the village, the 'Washdyke' recreational area contains play equipment, a BMX track, football pitch, and a community orchard.
