Travel Guide

Looking South along the Cromford Canal, about 1km South of Whatstandwell. The picture clearly shows the four forms of transport along this section of the valley, from left to right: the canal and its towpath, railway line, road (the A6) and the river Derwent.

At the National Tramway Museum in Crich. The Museum started in the 1950s / 60s when most of the old tram networks in the cities of the UK were being closed down. The Tramway Museum Society was formed in the late 1940s when the decline began and they started to purchase the trams, track etc. The Crich site came to the attention of the society in the late 1950s. They later purchased the site. At the Crich Tramway Village. On Tramway Street. Bluebells of Derby Luxury Ice Cream Parlour

It was still there with other crumbs late morning Sunday which ...

9/10 Wonderful! (1,001 reviews)
Hotel was nice and welcome was good. I was rudely awaken at 5am in my room from the sound of deliveries and recycling glass bottles which is awful considering the reason we use hotels is to sleep. It has completely ruined my day with work due to tiredness I am now facing. Not one at all
