The civil parishes of Tixall and Ingestre were merged into a single parish of Ingestre with Tixall in 1979. A notable building of Tixall is Church of St John the Baptist. At this site a free chapel has existed since the 12th century but the present church was built in 1848 by the Hon John Chetwynd Talbot, son of the 2nd Earl Talbot of Ingestre.
