Taddington is a small village and civil parish in the Derbyshire Dales district of Derbyshire, England, set on the edge of the limestone plateau of the White Peak within the Peak District. It sits beneath the open moors with characteristic drystone walls, stone farm buildings and winding lanes, and provides easy access onto Taddington Moor and the surrounding dales and footpaths towards nearby villages such as Chelmorton and Flagg.
The village keeps a strongly agricultural character - sheep farming and traditional hill farms remain important - but tourism and outdoor recreation also support the local economy as walkers and cyclists pass through. Historic hints of the past, from old lime kilns and minor lead-working relics to a compact village community with local gatherings and amenities, give Taddington a quietly enduring Peak District charm.
