Map of the UK

The village and civil parish of Morley sits in the borough of Erewash in Derbyshire, in the East Midlands. It is a small, largely rural settlement surrounded by gently rolling farmland and country lanes, within easy commuting distance of Derby and Nottingham and not far from market towns such as Ilkeston and Heanor.

Traditionally agricultural, the parish shows its past in stone farmhouses and hedged fields, while today the local economy is a mix of farming and residents who commute to nearby towns and cities. Community life is quiet and village‑centred, with a parish council and local events, and the area is popular with walkers and anyone after a rural Derbyshire feel while remaining connected to the wider Erewash valley’s industrial and cultural links.
