ILon&on Issued to the Subscribers by Phillimore & Co., 124, Chancery Lane. 1908. — PREFACE. As promised in the last volume of the Marriage Registers of Derbyshire, the marriage records of St. Alkmund's form the first instalment of the Registers of the County Town. The Editors do not doubt that these will prove especially interesting to Derbyshire people. In Volume V they hope to print further instalments of town registers in the shape of those of St. Michael's and also some village registers. It will be noticed that St. Alkmund's register begins at the earliest possible date, 1538, but of the remainder, two do not start till the seventeenth century and one, that of Quarndon, synchronizes with the passing of Lord Hardwicke's Marriage Act. 1379092 It will be convenient to give here a list of the Derby- shire parishes of which the Registers have been printed in this series: Volume I.

From the World's First Factory, to a Museum of Making
From the world’s first factory, to a Museum of Making Derby’s rich history and heritage is going to be celebrated in 2020 on the site of the world’s first factory, when the city opens a major new £17m museum. Run by Derby Museums, the Museum of Making - in the Derwent Valley Mills UNESCO World Heritage Site - will be a contemporary space telling Derby’s 300-year history of innovation and “making”. It will also be aimed, partly, at inspiring new creativity. Designed and made by the people and industries of Derby it will become a focal point for a dynamic calendar of exhibitions, workshops, activities and events. Revealing the whole building to the public for the very first time, the new Museum will display over 50,000 objects including the Rolls-Royce Eagle Engine, which helped power the first transatlantic flight 100 years ago in June 1919. This concept has been developed by Derby Museums in collaboration with the local community, it will help to shape the way in which Derby is understood and appreciated - thanks to the long list of innovators, makers and creators associated with the city. The Silk Mill of John and Thomas Lombe itself is believed to be the world’s first factory. The silk throwing machines in this building were based on machines studied by John Lombe in Italy - the designs of these having been copied and smuggled into England in an early example of industrial espionage. The layout of the mills, with a large number of people in two buildings doing a number of processes, was the prototype for the modern factory and was a model for the later textile mills built for Arkwright and partners 50 years later. -
Church Broughton Parish, Derbyshire
Church Broughton Parish, Derbyshire: An oral history, 1900-1940 Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Janet Arthur De Montfort University June 2019 Abstract This study is an oral history of a Derbyshire dairying parish during the first forty years of the twentieth century. The aim was to discover the nature and cohesion of society in a parish with no resident lord of the manor, the effects on the parish of changes in agricultural practice and the impact of government interventions on the lives of individuals. The lives of residents were affected by the history and layout of the parish, based on the geography and previous ownership. Having no resident lord of the manor generated a social structure with three layers: firstly, seven key people, outsiders who did not own land, secondly, networks of small landowners and artisans, who had lived there for generations, finally, labourers, many also families of long standing. Religion was important in supporting this social structure. Being an ‘open’ parish had enabled a chapel to be built and the provision of a school, though not all children attended this school. Through widespread ownership, there was a freedom to live and work without being beholden to neighbouring estates, as alternative employment could be found elsewhere for any surplus workers. Mechanisation improved farming practice, but, though government intervention during the First World War helped, the downturn afterwards and competition between farmers meant dairying was precarious, until the foundation of the Milk Marketing Board in 1933 to control production and price. The sale of the Duke of Devonshire’s farms in 1918 to the occupiers and the County Council removed the prestige that his tenants had enjoyed. -

The Derbyshire General Infirmary and The
Medical History, 2000, 46: 65-92 The Derbyshire General Infirmary and the Derby Philosophers: The Application of Industrial Architecture and Technology to Medical Institutions in Early-Nineteenth-Century England PAUL ELLIOTT* Though there have been various studies ofhospital architecture, few have examined in detail the application of industrial technology to medical institutions in the Enlightenment and early-nineteenth-century periods.' This paper tries to rectify this by offering a case study of one hospital, the Derbyshire General Infirmary (1810), where, principally under the inspiration of the cotton manufacturer, William Strutt FRS (1756-1830), a deliberate attempt was made to incorporate into a medical institution the latest "fireproof' building techniques with technology developed for * Paul Elliott, School of Geography, University of medicine in Manchester, 1788-1792: hospital Nottingham, University Park, Nottingham, NG7 reform and public health services in the early 2RD. industrial city', Med.

River Derwent: Darley Abbey to Derby
PADDLING TRAIL River Derwent: Darley Abbey to Derby Key Information This is a nice straightforward short paddle, through a revived city centre on an easy river. The start and finish are almost out in the countryside, and the city centre from the river is very pleasant. Start: Car Park, Poplar Portages: 1 Weir For more Row, Darley Abbey, Time: 1 - 2 Hours information DE22 1DU Distance: 3 Miles scan the QR Finish: Pride Park, OS Map: Explorer 259 Derby code or visit Derby County F.C. bit.ly/Darley- DE24 8XL Abbey 1. Put in down the bank, below the shallows at the bottom of the weir and turn right, towards Derby city centre. 2. The river is quite narrow and overhung by trees, creating a green tunnel in summer. After the first mile the suburbs crowd in and a quiet stretch leads to a road bridge before the busy inner ring road bridge. 3. Once under this, the paddler is in the middle of Derby, and on the right bank is a former Silk Mill, now restored and a tourist attraction. A pleasant, more open part of the river is crossed by a new and modern pedestrian bridge. On your right is Derby Cathedral, with new flats on the left and paths either side of the river. 4. After the next road bridge, the river broadens out into a lake, with County Council buildings on the right bank and much open ground. There are many ducks and geese. This is a favorite walking, lounging and picnicking space and also a possible egress. -
