About

Amington is a suburb and ward of Tamworth in Staffordshire, situated to the north-east of the town centre. The area contains a mix of post-war council housing and later private estates laid out around local streets and small shopping parades. Community facilities include a primary school, a community centre, local shops and playing fields that host amateur football and other activities. Regular bus services link Amington with the town centre and Tamworth railway station, making commuter journeys straightforward.

On the edge of the neighbourhood stands Amington Hall, an older manor house set back from the main streets and surrounded by trees that mark a break between housing and open land. Pockets of green space and tree-lined verges provide routes for short walks and local wildlife, while allotments and small community gardening projects sit close to residential streets. The ward’s boundaries and local lanes reflect a mix of planned estate development and older lanes that once served the surrounding farmland.
