Foolow is a small rural parish in the Derbyshire Dales district of Derbyshire, England, tucked on the limestone margins of the Peak District. The cluster of stone cottages, narrow lanes and traces of old lead‑mining workings sits among pasture and moorland, making it popular with walkers and anyone interested in industrial archaeology. Traditionally agricultural, the local economy now relies on farming, small local businesses and tourism, while a strong village community preserves historic buildings and landscape character.
