The small civil parish of Marston on Dove sits in the rural district of South Derbyshire, Derbyshire, in the English Midlands, lying beside the floodplain of the River Dove and close to the Staffordshire border near the market towns of Tutbury and Burton upon Trent.
Historically agricultural with medieval roots, the settlement retains a compact village feel with older buildings and a parish church; the local economy remains largely farming-based while many residents commute to nearby Derby and Burton upon Trent. The river, quiet lanes and footpaths make the area popular with walkers and anglers, and community life is typical of small English villages with occasional local events and strong neighbourly ties.
