Description

The Derby Silk Mill (Derby Museum of Industry) showcases much of the city and counties rich industrial heritage. It is part of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site - the East Midlands only such heritage site.

This particular Mill is the world first Silk Mill, and thus one of the worlds most historically important buildings.

Derby City Council recently applied for lottery funding to upgrade the museum however was rejected. This shot is currently impossible to take due to the Cathedral Green landscaping work.
