Dalbury is a tiny hamlet in the south of Derbyshire, at the end of a short, dead-end lane in open county, two miles outside the edge of Mickleover, an outermost suburb of Derby.

The nearest village of any size is Etwall, a mile and a half to the south, to which Dalbury is connected only by footpaths. Trusley, to the north-west is barely bigger that Dalbury itself.
