Amington, Staffordshire

Flower Delivery to Amington with Clare Florist

Once a distinct village, Amington now belongs to the district of Tamworth in the county of Staffordshire. Its neighbouring villages are Bolehall, Glascote, Glascote Heath and Stonydelph. Interestingly, there is little to divide Amington from the other villages close to it.

Both Amington and Stonydelph formed one township in the past, but in 1932 Amington became part of Tamworth Rural District. By 1965, the village became part of Tamworth Borough.

That said, here's a look at some old structures in town:

St Editha's – the parish church of the village. An original church, built in 1836, called Chapel of Ease on the Green used to stand in the area. When it was demolished, George Edmund Street – who designed the Royal Courts of Justice in London – was hired as architect.

Amington Hall – an early 19th-century former country house that has been converted into residential apartments. The hall is also a Grade II listed building. It was owned by the Clinton family and was then purchased by William Repington.
