Strines is a village in Greater Manchester, located in the valley of the River Goyt midway between Marple and New Mills and about six miles southeast of Stockport. The village falls mainly within Marple parish and Stockport metropolitan borough, though a small part (including the railway station) falls within the boundaries of New Mills and thus in the Borough of High Peak, Derbyshire. Immediately surrounding Strines are the villages of Woodend, Hague Bar and Brookbottom. Close by are the towns of Marple and New Mills and the villages of Mellor and Rowarth. Nearby is the hamlet of Turf Lea.

It is served by Strines railway station on the Hope Valley Line.
