Quarndon is a small, attractive village in the Amber Valley district of Derbyshire, England, set on gently sloping ground that gives pleasant views across the Derwent Valley towards Derby and the fringe of the Peak District. Historically a rural settlement with stone cottages and a parish church, it retains a lot of period character and several listed buildings that reflect its long local history.
Today the village is largely residential and popular with commuters to nearby towns, but it still supports a lively community life with a village hall, primary school and local clubs, plus surrounding farmland and small businesses. Its position close to the valley and regional road links makes it a quiet, well-connected place for those who want easy access to urban amenities while enjoying Derbyshire countryside.
