Map of the UK

Tutbury is a compact historic village and civil parish in East Staffordshire, Staffordshire, England, perched on a steep hill overlooking the River Dove close to the border with Derbyshire. The skyline is dominated by the ruined Tutbury Castle, a Norman stronghold with a long medieval history and a notable connection to Mary, Queen of Scots, who was held there at various times.

Today Tutbury retains a market‑town feel with a high street of independent shops and pubs, active community life and regular visitors drawn by its heritage and attractive surrounding countryside. It sits within easy reach of larger centres such as Burton upon Trent, so the local economy blends agriculture and tourism with commuting to nearby towns.
