  • White's 1857 Directory of Derbyshire
    HISTORY OF THE BOROUGH OF DERBY. DERBY, a municipal and parliamentary borough and market town, is the capital of the county to which it gives name, in the hundred of Morleston and Litchurch, 52° 50′ north latitude, and 1° 27′ west longitude, from Greenwich; 132 miles by railway and 126 miles N.W. by the old road from London, 13 miles S.E. from Ashbourn, 25 miles S. from Bakewell, 24 miles S. by W. from Chesterfield, 10½ miles N.E. from Burton on Trent, 15½ miles W. by S. from Nottingham, and 29 miles N.W. from Leicester. It is an ancient town and formerly had a castle. The streets of the old part are crooked and narrow, but the new streets are well built and many of the modern houses are spacious and handsome. The Markeaton brook, running through the town, issues into the Derwent at the cast extremity; it is crossed by seven stone bridges, erected by a general subscription, with one of wood, and an elegant bridge of three elliptical arches over the Derwent; which with the silk mills, the wears, and broad expanse of the river, forms a handsome entrance to the town from Nottingham. The town is lighted with gas, and the streets are regularly paved, and considerable improvements and additions have, during the last 10 years, been made to the buildings of this busy and flourishing borough; which is plentifully supplied with water from the new works erected in 1850, at Little Eaton, at a cost of £40,000. The vale of the Derwent on the south presents an extensive level district, and the walks in the vicinity of the town are very pleasant.
