Castle Donington stands on the former Nottingham to Birmingham trunk road. It is a pleasant blend of the old and new, with modern shops standing alongside dignified Georgian and Regency houses. Several timber-framed houses dating from the 17th century and earlier, survive along the main road.

As suggested by the town"s name, there was once a Castle in the area built in the 13th century, which was then demolished and rebuilt later on that same century. The castle disappeared eventually towards the end of the 16th century. All that is left of the castle is a mound in the actual location.

Parish Church, the church that dates back to this period is still standing, and is a fine relic from the past. It replaced an earlier church of which nothing survives and was probably begun early in the 13th century. It was attached to Norton Priory near Runcorn and has features in the Early English, Decorated and Perpendicular styles of architecture.

The 13th century chancel windows and an ogee-canopied figure, believed to be that of a priest, set in the chancel wall are interesting. The church has fine tomb chests of the Hazelrigge and Staunton families and stained glass by Kempe, installed in 1902.
