The picture of Markeaton brook and the old mills is a work of art!
Your photos are bringing back all kinds of good memories... I remember going to see Bill Haley and the Comets at The Talk of the Midlands with a friend from Mackworth who now lives in Tulsa Oklahoma. We had to sneak our beer in under our coatsbecause we couldn't afford to buy a drink in the club.
It was murder trying to pop the cans under the table.
Anyway I just wanted to let you know that your photo is worth framing... Beautiful work. This is becoming more like an online art gallery than just another picture site.
Great info about The Arboretum. I never knew it was England's first public park.
I had some photo's taken there late one night for a poster for a band I was playing in. The Friar Gate section is a wonderful idea. I would never have thought about including it, but it's full of history.
When I was very small, and lived on Uttoxeter New Road (now pulled down) my mother would walk me down Old Uttoxeter Road to Friar Gate where I'd have to get an injection or some other equally traumatic medical treatment from old Dr. Burns. As a reward I'd get to go through a door in the wall of the bridge over the train tracks on Old Uttoxeter Road on the way home. I'm not that old yet, but can remember the steam trains
shunting about. What I wouldn't give to have taken some pictures of that. It's amazing how valuable a simple picture can eventually become over time.
What a wonderful place Derby is!!!
