Notes: Swadlincote is the main town in the district of South Derbyshire and has a population of approximately 33,000 people. Swadlincote is made up of three separate settlements - Swadlincote, Church Gresley, Midway and Newhall. These combine with the parishes of Woodville and Castle Gresley to form a band of development across the southern part of the District - lying between Burton on Trent in the west and Ashby de la Zouch in the east.

Pubs: Swadlincote has many pubs including the Admiral Rodney; The Angel; The Red Lion; The Royal Oak; The Sir Nigel Gresley and The Woodman.

Transport: A railway between Burton upon Trent and Coalville via Swadlincote opened in 1845, linking the town via Coalville to Leicester. Today the nearest railway station is Burton upon Trent, about five miles away, as the railway between Burton and Leicester lost its passenger service under the Beeching Plan in the 1960s and now carries only freight. In the 1990s there was a plan to restart the passenger service as a branch of Leicestershire's Ivanhoe Line, but it was not implemented. Swadlincote is served by the Arriva Midlands and Midland Classic bus companies.
