Derwent Mills is a wonderful area to live and work. It has a number of large businesses, including major corporations, and is situated near several cities. This makes it a perfect place to set up a business or to retire. The area is also comfortable and affordable, and also offers the convenience of city living.
The area is a historical landscape that includes a collection of cotton-making machines from the 18th and 19th century, along with workers’ housing. It is an UNESCO World Heritage Site and is regarded as the birthplace of modern-day factory production. Richard Arkwright’s very first cotton mill, Cromford Mill is the most well-known.
Richard Arkwright, a 18th century inventor of organic cotton spinning invented these industrial sites to accommodate his latest technology. They quickly became the model for factories across the globe. The river Derwent powered the electricity needed for these machines and they were built alongside other cotton mills. The site was eventually absorbed by the current city of Derbyshire.
