River Derwent

The map
About this Derby map poster
Derby grew beside the River Derwent, which runs through the city from north to south. From above, the river's course and its green banks form the natural spine of the map. The compact historic centre lies on its west bank, enclosed by an inner ring road. Terraced streets and later suburbs then spread outward in every direction across gently rolling ground.
The city has a strong claim to industrial history. Lombe's Silk Mill, on the riverbank in the centre, is often cited as one of the first factories in the world, and it marks the southern end of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site. Derby is also closely linked to Rolls-Royce, which has been based there for over a century.
The Derby Arboretum, opened in 1840, is considered one of the first planned public parks in England, and it appears as a neat green space south of the centre. A Derby map poster brings these layers together: the curving river, the ring road, the Victorian terraces and the parks, in the plan of a working Midlands city.

Inner ring road
The ring road encircles the historic centre. It forms a strong loop around the cathedral quarter and the older streets, clearly separating them from the surrounding districts.
Derby Arboretum
One of England's earliest public parks sits south of the centre as a tidy green rectangle, surrounded by the dense streets of Victorian terraces.

Why Derby
A map that means something
People who grew up in Derby, work in its engineering industries or studied at its university often feel quietly proud of the city. A map poster shows that affection with understated detail rather than tourist imagery.
Personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates with a street, district or date. Choose among Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand. Classic black & white suits the terraced streets and the river well.
