Swinfen and Packington is a small, predominantly rural civil parish just to the south‑east of Lichfield in Staffordshire, England. The area is characterised by farmland, pockets of ancient woodland and a scattering of hamlets and estate land, with a number of listed buildings and a historic country house that reflect its long association with the landed gentry and agricultural life.
Today the community combines traditional farming with residents who commute into nearby towns, and local life centres on the village hall, church and occasional community events; conservation and rural character are important locally, and the parish’s quiet lanes and hedgerows make it typical of the Staffordshire countryside rather than a bustling commercial centre.
