Brimington is a civil parish on the eastern edge of Chesterfield in Derbyshire, England. Lying close to the old coalfield and the course of the River Rother, it has a mix of older village streets and post‑war residential areas, with pockets of open space such as the village common and playing fields.

Historically rooted in agriculture and coal‑related industry, Brimington has become largely a residential and commuter community with local shops, schools and active clubs for cricket and football; a prominent parish church and community hall provide a focus for social life, while its proximity to Chesterfield gives easy access to wider employment and cultural amenities in Sheffield and Derby.
