Top 5 Reasons NOT to Move to Derby
The reasons you should know moving to Derby and why living
in derby & derbyshire will make your life worse than Birmingham.
Derby and Derbyshire were among the centres of Britain's Industrial Revolution. In 1717, Derby was the site of the first water-powered silk mill in Britain. Derby has a green belt area defined to the north and east of the city, first drawn up in the 1950s, to prevent convergence with the surrounding towns and villages. Derby's climate is classified as warm and temperate. The rainfall in Derby is significant, with precipitation even during the driest month.

Ripley Town Centre - VIDEO TOUR (Ripley, Derbyshire, UK)
We decided to visit Ripley Saturday Carboot, then decided to stop by the town afterwards to have a look. This video was taken on a Saturday afternoon.
Ripley is a town in the Amber Valley borough of Derbyshire, England.
What’s going for it?
A study by University College London a decade ago found that Ripley, smack bang in the middle of the country, had the highest proportion of residents with English ethnic origins – 88.6% – with its neighbour Heanor not far behind. What makes the Amber valley, wedged between Derby and Nottingham, such a hotbed of Englishness is a bit of a mystery, but don’t come expecting ye olde Morris dancers and chocolate box mead drinkers. This is the kind of quintessential England not found in tourist brochures. Think instead of redbrick terraces, suburban piles with pillars and electric gates, smashing chippies, 1920s semis, the odd tearoom, a Premier Inn, Lidl, Wilko and Wetherspoons, and a Friday night out that’s a sight to behold. This is not Downton Abbey (though Newstead Abbey isn’t far away). Ripley is ordinary England, in the best sense of the word.
Well connected?
Trains: the nearest station is 10 minutes away at Alfreton: half-hourly to Sheffield (30 mins), or Nottingham (20-30 mins). Driving: 15 mins to the M1, half an hour to the Peak District, Nottingham and Derby.
Anna Telling “It’s an affordable place to live, with great access to the Peak District’s beautiful, wild scenery. Worst things: social/economical problems due to unemployment and poor opportunities.”
Nigel Hunt “It has always had a rough reputation. But it’s friendly, except on a Friday night when it’s best to keep your children away from the centre.”

Places to see in ( Ripley - UK )
Ripley is a village in Surrey, England. The village has existed since Norman times – the chancel of the church of St. Mary Magdalen shows construction of circa 1160 there and supporting feet of fines and ecclesiastical records mention the village at the time. Ripley's sister village of Send to the south-west was the governing parish over the village for over 700 years until 1878 when they became two separate ecclesiastical parishes; they became separate civil parishes in 1933.
Lying on the main road from London to Portsmouth (from the 1930s referred to as the A3), Ripley was the post town for the whole area (including Woking) from 1813 to 1865. With the coming of the railway to what was then Woking Common in 1838, Ripley's importance diminished, and Woking became its post town in 1865. As motor traffic increased during the 1960s and the 1970s, the Portsmouth Road at Ripley became a notorious bottleneck, relieved by the building of the Ripley bypass in 1976. The A3 was renamed the B2215, and what has always been a major trunk road was expanded into six lanes north of Guildford, bypassing Send and Ripley.
The distance is 3.5 miles (5.6 km) to the M25 motorway. It is centred 6.2 miles (10.0 km) southeast of Woking, 6.8 miles (10.9 km) northeast of Guildford and 22.5 mi (36.2 km) southwest of London. Neighbouring villages Send and Send Marsh to the South-West and Ockham to the East have fewer shopping facilities.
The village church, St Mary Magdalen has a fine Norman chancel and is a Grade II* listed building (the second highest of the three categories). Among the more than 20 listed buildings and cottages in the village are Pinnocks Café the building the 'Ship Inn and Ye Old Sweet Shoppe', J Hartley Antiques, Sage Antiques (Green Cottage) and Clock House and Cellar Wines – Artisan Spirits, Boutique Wines, Delicatessen & Events (The Old Cellar) The building that Cellar Wines is located in, is a historical place of interest with a Blue Plaque located outside for the production of penicillin for the first time in the UK (possibly the world) for civilian use by Kennith White in 1944. Cedar House Gallery, in another listed building, Cedar House often has exhibitions and stocks predominantly watercolour and oil landscapes.
The village includes a coaching inn, The Talbot Hotel, which dates back to 1453, as well as Drake's restaurant, which has been awarded a Michelin star and 3 AA rosettes. The village high street includes a small supermarket, cobblers and bakery. Aside from the Talbot Hotel/Inn there is the Jovial Sailor as a further larger than average, food-serving public house. Two other pubs in the village are The Anchor and The Half Moon.

Alfreton is a town in Derbyshire in the Amber Valley district. This was filmed in October 2011 on a very cold day D: just wanted music in my uploads now!
Places to see in ( Heanor - UK )
Places to see in ( Heanor - UK )
Heanor is a town in the Amber Valley district of Derbyshire in the East Midlands of England. It lies 8 miles north-east of Derby. Together with the adjacent village of Loscoe it forms the civil parish and town council-administered area of Heanor and Loscoe, which in the 2011 census had a population of 17,251.
Heanor Market Place was developed in the 1890s, following the break-up of the Heanor Hall estate by the Miller Mundy family of nearby Shipley Hall (the Market Place site had been part of Heanor Hall Park). Until this development the main focus of market trading activity had been at Tag Hill.
Since 1984 Heanor has had three tiers of local government: Derbyshire County Council at the county level (the top tier), Amber Valley Borough Council at the district level (the middle tier), and Heanor and Loscoe Town Council at the parish level (the bottom tier). Heanor falls into two single-member electoral divisions of the County Council, Greater Heanor and Heanor Central.
Heanor and Loscoe civil parish includes all of Heanor town except Heanor Gate Science College and a few surrounding streets on the western edge of town (near the road to Smalley), Heanor Gate Industrial Estate to the south west, and a small area of houses on the town's southeasterly fringe, near the main road to Ilkeston. The college and surrounding streets, plus half the industrial estate, are within Smalley civil parish; the other areas are within the civil parish of Shipley.
Shipley Country Park, a steep wooded knoll bordering the south and west of the town, has its own riding school and three lakes surrounding it. It consists of most of the former estate of the Miller-Mundy family who lived until the 1920s at Shipley Hall (demolished in the 1940s). It was then sold for intensive open-pit mining: open-cast and deep-seam mining by what became the National Coal Board, before being restored and handed to the county council in the 1970s.
The nearest station is at Langley Mill two miles away, which has services to Nottingham, Sheffield and beyond. Formerly the Midland Railway had a line between Shipley Gate and Butterley that passed through Heanor (closed to passengers in 1926), and the Great Northern Railway had a branch line which terminated in a goods yard and small station in Heanor (closed in 1928, though temporarily revived in 1939).
Bus routes link Heanor with larger towns in the area such as Nottingham, Derby and Mansfield. Major bus operators serving Heanor include Trent Barton and Yourbus The nearest international airport is East Midlands Airport, south of Derby.

Places to see in ( Cromford - UK )
Places to see in ( Cromford - UK )
Cromford is a village and civil parish, two miles to the south of Matlock in the Derbyshire Dales district in Derbyshire, England. The population at the 2011 Census was 1,433. It is principally known for its historical connection with Richard Arkwright, and the nearby Cromford Mill which he built outside of the village in 1771. Cromford is in the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage site.
The River Derwent, with its sources on Bleaklow in the Dark Peak, flows southward to Derby and then to the River Trent. The geology of this section in the Derbyshire Dales is that of limestone. The fast flowing river has cut a deep valley. The A6 trunk road, which was the main road between London and Manchester in former times; the Cromford Canal and the Derwent Valley Line, linking Derby and Matlock, were all built in the river valley. The Via Gellia dry valley joins the Derwent at Cromford.
The A6 passes to the north of the village of Cromford; its land rises from 80m to 150m above mean sea level. It is 27 km north of Derby, 3 km south of Matlock and 1 km south of Matlock Bath. Trains operate from Cromford Station, on the north bank of the Derwent to Derby and Nottingham.
The Cromford Mill (1771) buildings and accommodation for workers to staff the factories form part of the Derwent Valley Mills, which is recognised as a World Heritage Site for its importance. North Street, constructed by Arkwright is important as a very early purpose built industrial workers housing and was rescued from dereliction in the 1970s by the Ancient Monument Society who have since sold off the houses. One house in the street is now a Landmark Trust holiday cottage. Masson Mill (1783) is on the northern fringe of the village.
Willersley Castle dominates hill on the east side of the river, with commanding views of Masson Mill, the village, and the road from Derby. Commissioned by Richard Arkwright, building work began in 1790, but was delayed by a fire in 1791. Richard Arkwright died in 1792, and the building was occupied by his son Richard in 1796. The Arkwright family moved out in 1922, and the building was acquired by some Methodist businessmen, and opened to guests as a Methodist Guild hotel in 1928. During World War II, the building was used as a maternity hospital by the Salvation Army while evacuated from their hospital in the East End of London. St Mary's Church, Cromford built between 1792 and 1797 by Richard Arkwright.
The Cromford Canal – built to service the mills – is now in disuse, but has been designated a Site of Scientific Interest (SSSI). The canal tow path can be followed from Cromford Wharf to High Peak Junction, and on to Whatstandwell and Ambergate. The Cromford and High Peak Railway, completed in 1831, ran from High Peak Junction to the Peak Forest Canal at Whaley Bridge. Its track bed now forms the High Peak Trail, a walk and cycle route which is joined by the Tissington Trail at Parsley Hay.

EP11 Seeing England: Roadtrip to Scotland, ALPACA TREK, Santo's Higham Farm Hotel, Low Seizergh Farm
Super excited for our first road trip from London to Scotland! This is the first of a few video's of our trip.
The drive from London to Glasgow is just over 400 miles and takes around 7 hours if you're driving directly, so we decided to stop off at a couple of places to break up the drive.
Our first stop was in Alfreton which is about 1/3 of the way from London to Glasgow. We stopped here because there is an Alpaca farm where you can learn about alpaca's, take them on a trek and feed them. I'd wanted to do this for ages so I was so happy to see it was on our way and the perfect point for the first stop.
We stayed in Alfreton overnight at a local hotel which is less than 5 mins to drive from the farm. The hotel restaurant menu looked really interesting so we had dinner there. The hotel isn't very big and had a wedding on the night we stayed so the music was super loud until quite late and there were quite a few drunk guests arguing outside our room! It also meant it was quite difficult to get a drink at the bar bacause of all the wedding guests. Worth checking for events before booking.
The next day we drove the rest of the way to Glasgow stopping off halfway at a farm shop in Kendal which is on the edge of the lake district.
There was loads of stuff to do at this farm making a great stop off for a couple of hours.
There's an outdoor area where they serve food plus ice cream made from milk from their cows and there's also a raw milk vending machine which vends unpasteaurised milk from their cows. You buy a bottle from one machine and then fill it up in the other. SO COOL!
Around 3:30pm every day you can watch the cows being milked through the gate.
The farm shop sells so many goodies it was difficult not to buy everything. Upstairs there's a gift shop and the cafe where you can sit and enjoy a cream tea while watching the cows being milked through the viewing window.
Then if you need to walk off all the cakes and ice cream theres also a lovely farm trail which takes you around the farm.
From there its about 150 miles to glasgow which is about a 2.5 hour drive.
Places we visited:
1. Brackenfield Alpacas
Mount Pleasant Farm, Back Ln, Alfreton DE55 6AJ
2. Santo's Higham Farm Hotel & Restaurant
Main Rd, Higham, Alfreton DE55 6EH

MORTON: North East Derbyshire Parish #6 of 24
Here comes a village with a bold claim, one that in fact is shared by at least three other places in the UK. All four settlements claim they are the dead centre of England, and they all have things placed within their boundaries which will convince you that they are. Which one is right? Well, for 200 years, Meriden near Coventry was considered the rightful owner of that title…
That was until Fenny Drayton in Leicestershire was granted the status, but Coton in the Elms in Nottinghamshire is the furthest place from any seas. Then there’s this place in North East Derbyshire, which claims it sits exactly in the cross of two lines running North to South, and East to West, from the UK’s furthest points.
Whichever is the correct place, you have to admit, this village can make up for it even if it’s not true. There’s a village hall which used to be a malthouse, there’s a wonderful 8th century Saxon church, there’s a very popular cricket club too, not to mention a former colliery which lends it’s name to it. The colliery itself is gone, but some of the old buildings still stand.
Doe Hill Goods Line used to be the Erewash Valley Extension and it passes through this place as well, and if all that’s not enough, how about the 6th Earl of Shrewsbury who was once the church patron, who used to knock about with Mary Queen of Scots, locking people up for her!
There’s lots to see and learn about as we tackle an ALFRETON postcode village for the first time. This is the dead centre of the country.
Allegedly.
This is MORTON.

If you're planning an adventure to the UK, depending on your nationality and your reason for visiting, you may need to organise a visa.
If you're an American, Canadian or Australian tourist, you'll be able to travel visa-free throughout the UK, providing you have a valid passport and your reason for visiting meets the immigration rules (link is external).
Citizens from some South American and Caribbean countries as well as Japan are also able to travel visa-free around the UK.
European Union citizens, non-EU member states of the EEA (Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland), Switzerland, and members of the Overseas Countries and Territories (OCT) do not need a visa to enter the UK.
If you have any further visa questions visit the official UK government website.

Places to see in ( Welling - UK )
Welling is a town in the London Borough of Bexley approximately 10.5 miles east-southeast of Charing Cross, the traditional centre of London. Welling also lies within the historic county of Kent. The East Wickham part of Welling is probably one of the oldest settlements in this area. A Neolithic stone axe was found in East Wickham in 1910, and remains of Roman buildings were unearthed near Danson in 1989.
Before opening of the Bexleyheath Line on 1 May 1895, Welling was a village on the main road from London into Kent (Watling Street). It had been a traditional staging post for coaches; the presence of three inns along the main road is the result of that. Local legend has it that Welling is so called because in the era of horse-drawn vehicles, it could be said you were well in to Kent, or had a well end to the journey up and down Shooters Hill which, at the time was steep, had a poor road surface and was a notorious haunt of highwaymen.
However, local historians have recently concluded that the origin of the name is most likely from 'Welwyn' (meaning 'place of the spring'), due to the existence of an underground spring located at Welling Corner, or possibly a manorial reference to the Willing family, who lived in the area in 1301. Welling is home of the football ground of Welling United F.C. which is shared with the Erith and Belvedere F.C.
A large Russian gun is located at Welling corner. This Russian weapon is a 36-pounder carronade (calibre 6.75 inches - weight 17 cwt) of a type used during the Crimean War (1854 to 1860), displayed on a simple wooden replica carriage. The carronade was in service from 1780 to 1860 and is now on loan from the Royal Artillery Museum in Woolwich as a reminder of Welling's early association with the Royal Arsenal, Woolwich, when huts at East Wickham were built as homes for munitions workers in the Great War.
