The ruins of Hemington Church (St. Mary's) are the remains of a medieval church. Its tower collapsed in 1986, leaving only the chancel and some wall fragments, visible from a public footpath on private land. Once a thriving parish church, it became abandoned by 1590 and fell into decay, with its roof gone by the late 19th century, now standing as a Grade II listed Scheduled Ancient Monument, a testament to its 13th-14th century origins.

The Parish Church of St Nicholas in Lockington dates from the twelfth century and has additions from most periods from the Norman to the present day. The tower and large windows were added in the fifteenth century. The connections with the Bainbrigge, Storey and Curzon families of Lockington Hall are reflected by memorials to the families in the Church. The church tower is unusual in that it has 12 bells, the largest of which, the tenor, is reputed to be the original bell from the tower of Hemington Church. A significant feature is the screen & display, which includes the Royal Arms of Queen Anne, placed after the Act of Union in 1707 when England and Scotland united.

Excellent cafe; tables mostly outside but shelter and comfort in abundance.

Commissioned by East Midlands Airport and installed in 2005. A series of relief art stepping stones, sculpted by Graeme Mitcheson. The designs shown on the stepping stones were decided by students from local primary schools during a number of workshops with the artist. The students were asked to create models of flight images using clay. The schools involved in the project were: • Orchard Primary School, Castle Donington • St Edward's Primary School, Castle Donington • Kegworth Primary School • Diseworth Primary School

Leaving Hemington along a lane/bridleway... There's this great bit of open land, with nice wide rolling gravel pathways. Great views too!
