About

Burton Central is the commercial and administrative core of East Staffordshire, focused around its historic market town layout. The area is defined by the River Trent and the Trent and Mersey Canal, which have long shaped its development and industrial character. Key streets like High Street and Station Street form the main retail and business corridors, containing a mix of national chain stores and independent businesses. The town hall and library serve as central civic buildings within this urban grid.

The area is directly linked to the brewing industry, with several major breweries located in its immediate outskirts influencing the local economy. The brewing heritage is evident in street names and the Burton Bridge, which connects the central zone to other districts. Public transport converges at the railway and bus stations, providing regional connections. Open spaces include the Washlands, a flood meadow alongside the Trent used for recreation and events.
