Bargate is a hamlet in Derbyshire, England. It is a linear settlement as it has only one main road running through it: Belper Road which becomes Sandbed Lane (at the top Bargate Road) runs from Holbrook to Openwoodgate.

Other roads include Highwood Avenue, Blackbird Row, The Croft and Bargate View, which is a development completed in 2008 with around 25 houses on the east side of Sandbed Lane. There is one pub in Bargate, The White Hart, which serves a range of real ales. There used to be a post office, a general store, a butcher, a hairdresser and a pet shop but these no longer exist.
