Cookshill is a small rural settlement in the Staffordshire Moorlands district of Staffordshire, England, set among rolling moorland and farmland on the western fringes of the Peak District National Park. Its lanes, stone cottages and open views are typical of the area, and it sits within easy reach of the market town of Leek and the larger urban centre of Stoke-on-Trent.

Life in Cookshill is shaped by an agricultural heritage - old farmsteads and field patterns remain visible - while the local economy now mixes farming with small rural businesses and a modest amount of visitor activity from walkers and country-lovers. Socially the community tends to be quiet and close-knit, relying on nearby villages and towns for services and events, and attracting residents who appreciate countryside living with reasonably straightforward commuting options.
