Victoria Mills, Draycott

Highlight • Historical Site

The village of Draycott is sandwiched between the cities of Derby and Nottingham on the banks of the meandering River Derwent. There are a variety of places to eat and drink, with a couple of delightful cafes and a few good pubs.

The village is home to a dramatic, four-storey mill building, the Victoria Mills. When it was constructed in the 1880s it was one of the longest buildings of its kind in Europe.

St Michael's Church, Breaston

Highlight • Religious Site

The church dates from the 11th century, but is mostly 14th and 15th century. The roofs were raised in the 16th century. A restoration took place in 1871 by Robert Evans of Nottingham where the old box pews were replaced with new seating, and choir stalls were provided. The west gallery was removed. The floor was laid with boards under the seating, red quarry tiles in the aisles, and May and Co encaustic tiles laid in the chancel. The south aisle roof was re-leaded. The Rector provided a small stained glass window featuring St Michael, which was designed and installed by Heaton, Butler and Bayne. It was restored between 1895 and 1899 by Robert Evans and Son who also added a new vestry. The contractor was C Baines of Newark.
