Woodville is a large village within the district of South Derbyshire in Derbyshire, England, sitting just outside Swadlincote and close to the Leicestershire border. Its growth in the 19th century was driven by coal and clay extraction and the associated brick and pottery trades, leaving an industrial heritage that still shapes the local character even as the landscape to the south and west has been replanted as part of the National Forest.
Today Woodville is a predominantly residential community with local shops, pubs, sports clubs and a busy village life, and many residents commute to nearby towns such as Derby and Burton upon Trent. Ongoing regeneration and woodland planting have softened former industrial sites, giving the place a mix of working‑class roots and greener, family‑friendly amenities.
