  • The Ultimate Peak District & Derbyshire Bucket List
    The Ultimate Peak District & Derbyshire Bucket List: 101 Great Things To Do 1. Embrace the great outdoors in the UK’s first National Park Established in 1951, the Peak District is the country’s oldest National Park. If you love the outdoors, this protected area of natural beauty - which covers 555 square miles in total - offers over 200 square miles of stunning open access land to explore. 2. Visit the ‘jewel in the Peak District’s crown’ at Chatsworth House Home to the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, Chatsworth is one of the UK’s favourite stately homes. Discover over 30 magnificent rooms, a 105-acre garden, parkland, a farmyard and playground, and one of Britain’s best farm shops. 3. Conquer the tallest ‘Peak’ in the Peak District At 636 metres above sea level, you’ll feel like you’re standing on top of the world when you conquer the Kinder Scout plateau. It’s the highest point in the National Park and was also the site of the 1932 Mass Trespass, a landmark event which sparked a debate about the right to roam in the countryside, leading to the establishment of the Peak District as the first National Park two decades later. 4. Discover the UK’s oldest Ice Age cave art at Creswell Crags Walk in the footsteps of Ice Age hunters, uncover the secrets of early man, discover incredible Ice Age cave art and marvel at the UK’s largest discovery of ritual protection marks at this picturesque limestone gorge on the Derbyshire/Nottinghamshire border. 5.

    NORBURY-WITH-ROSTON PARISH. 225 these monuments have been removed from the place they first occupied, on account of their being unprotected and subject to injury. The living is a rectory, with the perpetual curacy of Snelston annexed, valued in the King’s book at £15 16s. 0½d., now £700. The Rev. Clement F. Broughton, M.A., is patron and incumbent. The rectory, a large handsome mansion, with projecting eaves and a handsome conservatory adjoining, is situated on an eminence a little south of the church. There are 58A. 1R. 28P. of glebe. A National school was erected in 1832, by subscription, aided by a small grant from the National school society. It is a neat brick building with residences for the teachers; about 60 children attend, who pay a small weekly payment. The bequest of Thomas Williams, who founded a school, and endowed it in 1678 with land now let for £18 a year, is appropriated to the National school. The North Staffordshire Railway runs through the parish about 200 yards N. W. of the church, and has a small station here. The manors of Norbury and Roston are described in Domesday survey as held by one Henry, under Henry de Ferrars. Robert de Ferrars, son of Henry, gave the manor to the prior and convent of Tutbury, who in the year 1125, conveyed it to William Fitzherbert, in fee-farm rents, subject to the yearly rent of 100s. ROSTON is a considerable village, 5 miles S.W. from Ashbourn, and three-quarters of a mile S.E.

  • Derby Museums Collections Development Policy 2014
    Derby Museums Collections Development Policy 2014 Name of museum: Derby Museums (comprising Derby Museum and Art Gallery, The Silk Mill and Pickford’s House) Name of governing body: Derby Museums Trust Date on which this policy was approved by governing body: November 2014 Policy review procedure: The collections development policy will be published and reviewed from time to time, at least once every five years. Date at which this policy is due for review: 2019 Arts Council England will be notified of any changes to the collections development policy, and the implications of any such changes for the future of collections. 1. Relationship to other relevant policies/plans of the organisation: 1.1. The museum’s statement of purpose is: The vision for Derby Museums is to shape the way in which Derby is understood, the way in which the city projects itself, the way in which people from all places are inspired to see themselves as the next generation of innovators, makers and creators. The purpose of Derby Museums is to inspire people to become part of a living story of world class creativity, innovation and making. 1.2. The governing body will ensure that both acquisition and disposal are carried out openly and with transparency. 1.3. By definition, the museum has a long-term purpose and holds collections in trust for the benefit of the public in relation to its stated objectives. The governing body therefore accepts the principle that sound curatorial reasons must be established before consideration is given to any acquisition to the collection, or the disposal of any items in the museum’s collection.

The author is pleased to be informed of errors and omissions, alternative interpretations of the early families, additional information for consideration for future updates. She can be contacted at [email protected] DATES • Prior to 1752 the year began on 25 March (Lady Day). In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. • Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840. Where only a baptism date is given for an individual born after 1837, assume the birth was registered in the same quarter.
