Ravensdale Park is a small, predominantly rural civil parish in the borough of Amber Valley, Derbyshire, England. It comprises a patchwork of farmland, hedgerows and scattered farmsteads and retains the feel of historic parkland on the edge of more built-up valleys; its low population and quiet lanes make it a peaceful counterpoint to nearby towns while still being within reasonable commuting distance of Derby and Nottingham.
The “Park” element of the name reflects its landscape origins and there are surviving stone walls, lanes and vernacular buildings that hint at estate-era management. Economically the area is largely agricultural, with many residents working in the wider Amber Valley and surrounding towns; socially it is centred on local community activities, countryside pursuits and the modest parish institutions typical of rural Derbyshire.
