Draycott in the Clay is a small village and civil parish in East Staffordshire, in the county of Staffordshire, England. It sits in a rural part of the county not far from larger market towns such as Uttoxeter and Burton-on-Trent, surrounded by farmland and hedgerow-lined lanes that reflect its agricultural setting.
Historically the village has medieval roots and retains a village-centred feel with a parish church, village hall and local clubs; agriculture has long been important but today many residents commute to nearby towns or work in light industry and services. The community is typically described as close-knit, with a mix of traditional cottages and more modern housing that together give the settlement a distinctly rural Staffordshire character.
