St Chad's Water
Lake
👍👍 Awesome compact nature reserve and pond. Lots of seating to watch the sunrise and sunset 🌅 Beautiful to just take a walk around the lake which is about a mile - comfortable for most. Good free car park and an atmospheric chapel opposite full of old memories. If you are into meditation this is the p...

Rolls Royce Heritage Trust
Museum
👍 The museum was rather bare but contained a couple of pieces engines that might be might be of intrigue for the Aviation fans. A must go place if you're a Rolls Royce employee or interested in jet engines.

St Michael with St Mary's Church, Melbourne
Episcopal church
👍👍 By any measure, this is a very impressive parish church. Started in 1120 and still having most of its original Norman stonework, it is one of the finest Norman parish churches in the country. It was partly renovated in the 1630s and again, fairly sensitively, in 1859-1862 by George Gilbert Scott a...

Hough Windmill
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Lovely historic windmill, open on Sunday afternoons April to September and run by knowledgeable, friendly volunteers. You can have an audio tour or read the signs on each of the levels yourself to learn about the history and mechanics of the mill and it's restoration. Children can have a go at grind...

Grace Dieu Park
Park
👍 Beautiful place to walk the dog. Parked at the bulls head car park and started from there. Wonderful in the summer to take toddlers for a dip in the stream as all under shade, take your picnic blankets as gets muddy though!

Pips paddocks
Dog park
👍👍 Excellent facility to practice off-lead socialisation or just to let your dogs go nuts in a secure environment. Good rates and flexible slots - 30 mins or an hour - means you can make the most of your training time.

Carvers Rocks
Nature preserve
👍👍 Lovely walks around the reservoir and carvers rocks nature reserve.
Poor online information about the walks, hopefully my photos of information boards will be helpful.
There are many paths to take, some with lovely views of the Res.
Obviously in winter there's not as much to see and it's quieter, we...

Tarpey Gallery
Art gallery
👍 As a previous exhibitor and regular visitor I consider Tarpey Gallery to be a superb regional as well as local hub for art. The quality of the artwork and the ambience in the gallery is always first class and gallery owner Luke Tarpey ensures a warm and welcoming atmosphere for guests and fellow art...

Derwent Valley Heritage Way End Point
Hiking area
👍👍 Its a long walk but worth it from Ladybower Reservoir, the last leg from north Derby to Shardlow is uninspiring but has industrial interest. When you get to the end point you still have another half mile to a mile to get to the road depending on which road you aim for.

East Midlands Airport Picnic and Viewpoint Area (EMG)
Tourist attraction
👍 So… I’m a plane spotter and was quite excited at the prospect at getting up close and personal to the planes at East Mids.
The viewing area itself has a small parking area (free) along with a picnic area. Look like the airport actually encourages plane spotting - which is great.
The location itsel...
