Derbyshire

Derbyshire, a county of rich, diverse heritage of spectacular beauty 

Extraordinary twisted spire of St Mary Church in Chesterfield

Royal Crown Derby,  famous for it`s exquisite porcelain

Blue John mineral, a semi precious gem stone,  unique to the county

Yeldersley is a handsome manor, mentioned in the Domesday Book

Stilton cheese only make in 3 counties of which Derbyshire is one

History shows the Brigantes let by a Celtic queen settled here first

Industrial Revolution, Sir Richard Arkwright built the 1st water powered mill

Radio Derby commissioned an anthem entitled "Our Derbyshire" in 2015

Enchanting Peak District, mountains, beauty spots and amazing views.
