Flagg is a small upland village and civil parish in the Derbyshire Dales district of Derbyshire, England, sitting on the limestone plateau of the White Peak in the Peak District. Its setting is classic high‑peak countryside - drystone walls, rolling pastures and occasional limestone scars - making it a handy base for walkers and for trips into nearby dales such as Lathkill Dale.
Historically the area combines pastoral farming with traces of past lead‑mining and lime‑burning activity, and the settlement is still defined by stone cottages and farmsteads; tourism and holiday lets now supplement traditional sheep and hill farming. The community is small and rural, linked by lanes to neighbouring villages such as Chelmorton and Hartington, and prized for its quiet character and access to Peak District footpaths.
