Woodville is a village and civil parish in South Derbyshire, Derbyshire, England, sitting between Swadlincote and Burton upon Trent close to the A511 and the county boundary. Its setting reflects a 19th‑century industrial past of coal, clay and small-scale potteries, with more recent landscape change driven by National Forest planting and local green‑space improvements.
The settlement today is largely residential with a mix of shops, pubs and active community groups, while many residents commute to nearby towns for work. Historic traces of mining and brickworks linger in the street pattern and place names, and the parish maintains a strong local identity through clubs, the parish council and events that draw on both its industrial heritage and growing woodland surroundings.
