Norbury and Roston sits within the Derbyshire Dales district of Derbyshire, England, and covers the small village of Norbury together with the neighbouring hamlet of Roston. The parish is characteristically rural, set among rolling farmland, stone walls and quiet lanes, and forms part of the patchwork of low dales and pastures that draws local walkers and horse riders rather than mass tourism.
Historically the settlements have agricultural roots, and you’ll find a handful of older farmhouses and listed buildings that hint at medieval origins; today farming still shapes the economy while many residents commute to nearby market towns. Socially it’s a small, close‑knit community with the usual village activities and a strong local interest in conserving vernacular buildings, hedgerows and the rural landscape.
