Little Eaton situated four miles to the north of Derby. It lies between the River Derwent on the western and the A38 Bypass on the eastern side of the village. There is a broad range of shops and amenities, including a local supermarket, the renowned 'Barry Fitch' butchers, post office, primary school, three pubs, garden centre, along with other amenities which are well catered for in what is a very thriving community.

St Peter's Park, which was given to the village by Thomas Bates in 1902, provides excellent sporting facilities. Today, one corner of the park contains a children's play area, with swings, slides, tunnels and monkey bars. The rest of the park is given over to a football pitch, cricket pitch and tennis courts. Also prominent in the park is the new Little Eaton village hall, opened in 2010 and heavily used by a wide range of clubs/groups of people in the village. In late June/early July, the village carnival is held. Following a week of events, the carnival concludes with a parade from the top of the village at Westley Crescent through the village to the park. On the park a small fair sets up, along with book, white elephant and jewellery stalls, tombolas and refreshments and a barbecue serving meat from the local butchers. In the evening a live music with hot food event is sometimes held at the park or in one of the local pubs.
