Linton is a small village and civil parish in the district of South Derbyshire, Derbyshire, England. It sits in a typically rural agricultural landscape in the south of the county and retains a mixture of older cottages and more modern homes that reflect its quiet village character.
The local economy is largely agricultural and residential, with many people commuting to nearby market towns such as Swadlincote and Burton-on-Trent. Social life tends to be close-knit, centred on the village hall and church, and the surrounding countryside - including nearby sections of the National Forest - offers walking and outdoor recreation.
