Bede Island is an area of Leicester, England close to the city centre, with the River Soar to the west and Grand Union Canal to the east.
For many years Bede Island South was a run down area of brownfield land home to Vic Berry's locomotive scrapyard but in the 1990s urban regeneration sought to improve housing, employment opportunities and the environment in the area. The programme was successful in developing the waterfront of Leicester, a key part of the overall transformation of the city.
