Marston Montgomery is a small village in western Derbyshire, located four miles from the town of Uttoxeter, across the river in Staffordshire. The village is close to the villages of Cubley and Norbury.

The parish church, the Church of St Giles dates back to Norman times but was heavily restored during the 19th century.

The village's school also has a lengthy history, as it has been in existence since at least 1831.[1]
