Merry Lees is best known for its industrial estate. There are very few housing estates, however, various farms are situated in and around the area.

Notable nearby places include Thornton, Desford, Botcheston, and Newbold Verdon.

There are 2 housing groups: the old Merry lees pit houses of the miners from the mine that was there until the early-1970s, and the private houses on Merry lees Road on the road to Thornton.

When the railway line used to take passengers (closed for passengers in 1968) there was a halt at the bridge in Merry Lees.
