Unstone is a largely residential ward in the district of North East Derbyshire in Derbyshire, England, sitting close to the urban centres of Chesterfield and Sheffield. The area comprises a handful of villages and hamlets clustered along the valley of the River Drone, with easy commuter links and countryside that blends into the edge of the Peak District.
Historically the ward grew from farming and the small-scale quarrying and mining typical of Derbyshire; today it combines suburban housing with pockets of farmland and woodland. Local life centres on village amenities such as a primary school, halls, pubs and sports clubs, and the area is often valued for its mix of community spirit, easy access to towns and proximity to open countryside.
