Foremark is a small, largely rural parish in South Derbyshire, Derbyshire, England, set in rolling countryside close to the River Trent and the village of Repton. The landscape is dominated by farmland and pockets of woodland, with Foremark Reservoir providing a notable local landmark and nature area popular with walkers, anglers and birdwatchers.
Historically centred on country estates, the parish features the handsome 18th‑century Foremarke Hall, and its economy has long been shaped by agriculture, with a modest boost from leisure and tourism tied to the reservoir and nearby historic sites. The community is small and close‑knit, while nearby towns such as Burton upon Trent supply additional services and transport links.
