Kirk Ireton is a small village and civil parish tucked into the rolling, limestone countryside of the Derbyshire Dales in Derbyshire, England. Perched above surrounding farmland, it is characterised by honey‑coloured stone cottages, a village green and narrow lanes that give fine views across the rural landscape and make it popular with walkers and cyclists.
The village retains a strong community feel with local amenities and events centred on a village hall and pub, and many buildings lie within a conservation area reflecting medieval and later development. Agriculture remains important locally, supplemented by small‑scale tourism and conservation efforts that celebrate the parish’s historic architecture and countryside setting.
