Kingstone is a small village in the district of East Staffordshire, in the county of Staffordshire, England. Set within the rural fringe of the West Midlands, it combines traditional stone and brick cottages and farmsteads with a modest amount of newer housing, giving a quiet, village atmosphere that hints at medieval origins.
Historically agricultural, the local economy now blends farming with commuter links to nearby market towns such as Burton-on-Trent and Uttoxeter, and employment connected to brewing and light industry in the wider area. The community retains a strong village feel - a village hall, local pub and occasional fetes - and the surrounding lanes and woodlands are popular with walkers and those exploring the Staffordshire countryside.
