Hemington is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Lockington-Hemington, in the North West Leicestershire district of Leicestershire, England.

[2] In 1790, the nearby Harrington Bridge was built to create a crossing of the River Trent.

[3] Hemington was historically a township and chapelry in the parish of Lockington.

[5][6] Gravel quarrying at Hemington during the 1990s led to the discovery of three sets of remains from successive medieval bridges across the Trent.

[7][8] Although there is not a rail station in the village, East Midlands Parkway opened early in 2008 at Ratcliffe-on-Soar providing links on the Midland Main Line.
