Is there such a place name as Beachwell in Leicestershire.  It states on a marriage, that the lady in question came from there.  I did a Google search and nothing coming up.

Any chance it could be Bagworth?

It does look like Beachwell, but perhaps it's supposed to say Bitteswell? Bitteswell is just north of Lutterworth
