Cotesbach (/ˈkoʊtsbætʃ/ KOHTS-batch) is a village and civil parish in the Harborough district of Leicestershire, England. The nearest town is Lutterworth, about 1+1⁄2 miles (2.4 km) to the north. Rugby is 6 miles south of the parish. The River Swift flows through the parish, to the north of the village.[1] The parish is located near the M1, M6 and A5, with the main settlement just off the A426 Rugby Road, which was built to bypass the village. Until the year 2000 the village had a small post-office, operated inside the porch of a resident's cottage.[2]
