Froggatt is a small village in the Derbyshire Dales district of Derbyshire, England, sitting on the western fringes of the Peak District. It is best known for the nearby gritstone escarpment, Froggatt Edge, which provides dramatic crags and sweeping views over the Derwent valley and attracts walkers and rock climbers to its well‑walked paths and heather‑clad slopes.
Historically a rural farming community, the village retains a cluster of traditional stone cottages and lanes and now relies on a mix of agriculture and visitor‑driven trade; outdoor recreation and countryside tourism are important to the local economy. Despite its popularity with weekend visitors from places such as Bakewell and Sheffield, Froggatt has a quiet, close‑knit feel and is typical of small Peak District settlements where community events and the rhythms of farming still shape village life.
