The village and civil parish of Staunton sits in the district of Newark and Sherwood in Nottinghamshire, set in the low-lying agricultural landscape of the Vale of Belvoir. It is a small, predominantly rural community with open farmland and hedgerows, within easy reach of market towns such as Newark-on-Trent and Grantham, and close to the Belvoir Castle area that gives the vale its name.
Modest in size, Staunton retains traditional stone and brick buildings and a parish church that help to anchor local life; farming remains an important part of the economy while village activity tends to be centred on the church, the village hall and seasonal community events. Its rural setting attracts walkers and those seeking a quieter Nottinghamshire village atmosphere, and conservation of the surrounding landscape is a notable local concern.
