Hartington Middle Quarter is a small, rural civil parish in the Derbyshire Dales district of Derbyshire in England, set amid the limestone scenery of the Peak District. The landscape is typically patchworked with dry‑stone walls, upland pastures and scattered stone farmsteads, giving the area a very tranquil, agricultural character and a low, close‑knit population.

Historically shaped by farming and local quarrying and lime‑burning, the parish still relies largely on sheep and beef farming while welcoming walkers and cyclists drawn to its quiet lanes, drystone field systems and nearby dales. Local life is centred on small hamlets and a parish council that looks after conservation of traditional buildings and the rural way of life, with tourism and outdoor recreation now an important supplementary part of the economy.
