It has good road links to nearby market towns such as Burton upon Trent and Uttoxeter, so many residents commute out while the local landscape supports mixed farming and small enterprises.
Locally notable is Sudbury Hall, a 17th‑century house cared for by the National Trust that draws visitors and helps sustain hospitality and heritage activity in the area.
