Croft Pasture is a 6.2-hectare (15-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest on the outskirts of CroftinLeicestershire.[1][2] Most of the site, totalling 5.8 hectares, is owned and managed by the Leicestershire and Rutland Wildlife Trust.[3]

The River Soar runs through this unimproved grazed meadow, which is dominated by common bent and crested dog's-tail. A knoll in the north of the site has uncommon flora such as meadow saxifrage, common stork's-bill and subterranean clover.[3][4]

There is access from Station Road.
