Lockington Village is an historic village dating back to the "Domesday" records. It is is located on the borders of Derbyshire/Nottinghamshire. The village is a short drive from Castle Donington, which offers all the amenities of a small town. Super road infrastructure and great links to the airport and main line railway, however, Lockington retains the feeling of an unspoilt village.
