Little Eaton is a village and civil parish in Erewash, Derbyshire, England, sitting just north‑west of Derby. The settlement grew up around transport and extractive industries: the late‑18th‑century Little Eaton Gangway once carried limestone and coal down to the Derby Canal, and traces of old quarries and limekilns still mark the landscape.
Today the parish combines a strong village feel with easy access to the city, featuring a village green, local pubs, a primary school and an active village hall; walkers and cyclists make the most of towpaths and country routes that follow the old transport corridors, so history and countryside remain part of everyday life.
