Burton upon Trent

Burton-on-Trent is a historic market town in the West Midlands situated along the River Trent close to the Derbyshire border. Recognised internationally as the historic capital of British brewing, the area is a popular choice for families and professionals seeking a centrally located home with great transport links across the Midlands and beyond.
The town provides a variety of cultural and outdoor spaces. Residents can explore the region's brewing past at the National Brewery Centre or take a peaceful walk through the Washlands, an expansive area of natural wetlands and green space running directly through the town centre along the river. The nearby National Forest offers miles of recently planted woodland trails, cycling routes and wildlife habitats just a short drive from the residential areas.


The town centre features three interconnected shopping centres – Coopers Square, The Octagon and Burton Place – housing a broad selection of high street brands, independent shops and local cafés. Major supermarkets including Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Asda and Lidl are conveniently distributed across the area, alongside local pharmacies and post offices in neighbourhoods like Stretton and Branston. For entertainment, the town also features a multi-screen cinema and the Brewhouse Arts Centre.


Burton-on-Trent features an excellent transport network. Regular direct train services run from Burton-on-Trent Railway Station, allowing commuters to reach Birmingham New Street in around thirty minutes and Derby in just over ten minutes, alongside regular links northward to Sheffield and Nottingham. For road users, the A38 bypasses the town to provide a direct dual-carriageway link to the A50, the M1 and the M6 motorways, while a reliable local bus network provides regular connections across the town and out to neighbouring villages. International travellers can reach East Midlands Airport and Birmingham Airport within a 40-minute drive.
