Parwich is a remote village in the White Peak area of Derbyshire, 7 miles north of Ashbourne. Set among huge limestone outcrops, which rise to over 1000 feet, its 500 inhabitants are cosily sheltered in houses made of the same stone, standing around the open green. The stream, which gave the village its name, runs all the way through, trickling down from the churchyard. The village encompasses a pear shaped sprawl, spreading out over an area approximately 4 miles long. The northern boundary is the small hamlet of Pikehall and to the south is the beautiful Bletch Brook. The houses are very pretty and picturesque, with mullion windows built in the typical Derbyshire style of the late 18th and early 19th century and a few have date stones to prove it.

The village is set within the Peak District National Park and Derbyshire Dales district Council and has a very active community, who all work together to maintain the spirit of the village, preserving and maintaining the past but also bringing the village up to date.
