Stanton by Dale is a small village and civil parish in the borough of Erewash, Derbyshire, England. Set in gently rolling countryside close to the remains of Dale Abbey, it sits on the edge of the Erewash valley and is within comfortable commuting distance of Nottingham and Derby, so it combines a rural feel with easy access to larger town centres in the East Midlands.

The parish keeps a strong village character, with a mix of traditional homes and more modern housing, active community life and well tended green spaces. The name Stanton comes from Old English meaning a stony farm or settlement, reflecting its agricultural roots; today many people commute to nearby towns while small-scale farming and local businesses continue to shape the local economy and conservation-minded planning helps protect its historic character.
