  • White's 1857 Directory of Derbyshire
    DALE ABBEY PARISH. 261 took up his abode at Depedale, where he had been sometime, when about 1135, Sir Ralph, son of Lord Geremund, being out hunting, found his course intercepted by a morass; surveying this wild and secluded scene more closely, he at length perceived a column of smoke rising above the trees; making his way with difficulty through the plants and shrubs, he reached the place and found a rudely constructed hut, before it was a fire of sticks, and by it sat an aged man with unshorn hair and untrimmed beard. After hearing his tale, Sir Ralph proceeded to Derby, where it was verified, and the next day he returned with garments and food to the Hermit of the Dale—brought him tools and endowed him with the toll of his mill at Burgh, (Borrowash,) and encouraged him to fulfill the Virgin‟s pleasure. The recluse immediately commenced scooping out a habitation in the rock, which after several years labour was completed, as also an oratory at the foot of the hill for his patroness the Virgin. After living in this solitude for many years, he was found by a pilgrim attracted by the fame of his sanctity, stretched upon the floor of his cell apparently asleep, but dead. At his death, Serlo-de-Greudon, a knight of eminent valour and great wealth, who married the daughter of the above Sir Ralph, gave the place of Depedale to his godmother, who had a son, whom she educated for holy orders, that he might perform divine service in her chapel there; but a short time afterwards, and with her consent, he invited canons from Calke, and gave them Depedale.

The picture shows just some of the happy band of volunteers who organized and ran the recent City Charter Beer Festival in Derby. The occasion was the “wash-up” meeting, at which most of those on the team that helped organize the event got together to discuss what went well and what not quite so well - and what improvements could be made next year. We always do this, based on customers’ comments and our own observations. The reason everyone’s so cheerful is that the festival was thoroughly enjoyed by thousands of drinkers, making all the work that went into it worthwhile; it was a magnificent effort! (And a fine pint in the hand is a great smile-maker as well.) If you are possibly interested in joining the team and helping to organize and the next festival (in February), now is the time to tell us. You will be very welcome and the work is about to start. If beer festivals are not your thing, Derby CAMRA has loads of other campaigning jobs to be done. We’re always on the lookout for people to join or lead one of our teams, and for people who like to work on the essential individual jobs such as IT or writing.

Adda is thought to have provided the fi rst chapel here, a clay and wattle “House of Prayer” in 946AD. The present day stone chancel of St. Mary’s Church Attenborough Nature Reserve is built on this site and is thought to have existed in 1042. It is recorded in the © Crown Copyright - All rights reserved 2010. Doomsday Book of 1086. At this point the trail passes through Attenborough Nature Beeston Lock Reserve. The trail heads If you are following the trail southwards you will reach the river Trent and if you turn left (rather than right to follow the southwards towards the river trail) you will reach Beeston Lock about one and a half miles downstream.
