Horsley is a small civil parish and village in the borough of Amber Valley in Derbyshire, England, set amid gently rolling countryside. Its lanes and stone cottages give it a distinctly rural feel while keeping it within commuting distance of larger centres such as Derby, so it blends traditional village life with residents who work in nearby towns.
Historically the area has roots in agriculture and was touched by the county’s wider industrial story, but today the parish is best known for its village community, parish church and network of footpaths and bridleways that attract walkers. Local clubs, the village hall and the occasional pub event keep a strong communal spirit, and the surrounding landscape provides pleasant views across the Amber Valley.
