Seckington is a village and civil parish[2] in North Warwickshire, about 4 miles (6 km) northeast of Tamworth.

The B5493 road between Tamworth and Appleby Magna runs through the parish, passing about 100 yards (91 m) north of the village.

Seckington shares a parish council with Newton Regis and No Man's Heath.

[5] Continuations of the Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum say he "was treacherously and miserably murdered, in the night, by his own guards".

[7] In the late 17th century the antiquary Sir William Dugdale (1605–86) described, measured and recorded the castle in detail.

[4] Outside, on the south wall of the nave east of the porch is a scratched mass dial.

His monument is of veined marble, with Corinthian columns flanking kneeling figures of his family.
