Foolow is a village in the Derbyshire Peak District.

The village green contains an ornate cross, similar to the one at Wheston but possibly of later date. It is inscribed with the date 1868, when it was moved from the site of the Wesleyan Reform Chapel and its shaft was replaced. A former bull ring lies in front of the cross. [Neville T. Sharpe, "Crosses of the Peak District" (Landmark Collectors Library, 2002)]
