Shearsby is a rural village in the English county of Leicestershire.

It is in the Harborough district around nine miles due south of Leicester and north east of Lutterworth.

Shearsby Spa

A Holy Well on the road south and west of the village – between the main Leicester-Northampton road (now the A5199) and Bruntingthorpe – was converted into a spa that was popular during the first half of the nineteenth century. As early as 1855 it was reported to have fallen out of popularity. Nonetheless the 'Bath Hotel and Shearsby Spa' (SP621900) remains in business at its site.
