Stanton by Bridge is a small village and civil parish in South Derbyshire, in the county of Derbyshire, England. It sits close to the banks of the River Trent and is best known for its proximity to the mediaeval crossing at Swarkestone Bridge, making the area a familiar stopping‑off point for walkers and anyone interested in historic river crossings; the city of Derby lies a short drive away.
Characterised by a quiet, rural feel with stone cottages and a small parish church, the village has traditionally been linked to agriculture but now has a mixed economy with residents who commute to nearby towns. Its scale and setting give it a quietly picturesque quality, and local interest tends to centre on the landscape, waterways and the surviving historic features of the surrounding countryside.
