Leicester New Found Pool was an extra-parochial area (until 1858) and a civil parish from 1858 until 1896 when it was merged into Leicester.

It was located to the northwest of the City of Leicester quite close to the locality of Freaks Ground and was based on the episcopal parish of Leicester St. Augustine New Found Pool.
