  • Derby is the UK's most central city, which means it is easy to visit and experience the history and heritage, culture and shopping. Derby is easily accessible whether you are travelling by car, train or bus.
    In a short summary we have had a walk trough the town and we have seen quite a lot of interesting places like, the town centre, the St Peter's Church, the cathedral, the Neptune Pub, the River Derwent where we have fed the ducks, and much more.
    Hope you'll enjoy this video. If yes, please share, like, subscribe and dont forget to hit that bell :)

    I want to visit. My great grandfather was born in Derbyshire and moved to USA as a baby. He served for England in WW2. I believe he came from a family of farmers.

    Hi I don't know if you will pick this up after a year but you seemed to be interested in the Cathedral's architecture, its size and shape etc. It is one of the smallest Cathedrals but it was never mean to be it was originally built as a parish church starting in 943. It was neglected over the centuries and in the 18th Century it was rebuilt incorporating some of the original building, so its a bit of a mixture. Derby was a town until 1977 and it became a Cathedral in 1927. It is also locally famous for a pair of Peregrine falcon that nest and breed every year on its tower.

    Familiarity breeds contempt as the old adage says, Derby looks much better on film than in reality and I can say that as I live there.😥
