Morley is a small, quietly rural village in the Borough of Amber Valley, Derbyshire, England, sitting on gently rolling farmland near the eastern fringes of the Peak District. Its location gives pleasant views over the surrounding countryside and convenient access to the historic industrial landscapes of the nearby Derwent Valley.

Traditionally an agricultural settlement with links to the wider county history of mills, mining and quarrying, the village today is largely residential with a strong local community spirit and attractive walking country on the doorstep; many residents commute to nearby towns such as Belper and Derby for work and services.
