Linton is a small, rural civil parish in the district of South Derbyshire in Derbyshire, England. It occupies a quietly rolling Midlands landscape of farmland and hedgerows, with country lanes and public footpaths that make it popular with walkers; the parish sits within easy reach of larger centres such as Derby and Burton upon Trent.
The village has a character of traditional stone and brick buildings and a modest community life centred on local institutions such as the village hall and parish church. Its economy remains largely agricultural with some residents commuting to nearby towns, and the area retains a strong sense of local history and community rather than any big industry or tourist infrastructure.
