Discover the elegance and charm of Derby’s Georgian past on this guided walking tour led by local historian and author Danielle Burton.

Journey through time as Danielle shares captivating stories and lesser-known historical insights, all set against the backdrop of some of the city’s most beautiful 18th-century architecture.

With a specialism in the Georgian period and the Wars of the Roses, Danielle brings a wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm to her tours. She holds a First in History and an MA in Public History and Heritage from the University of Derby, and currently works at the Derbyshire Record Office while also running Georgian Derby and Belper Tours. Her debut book, Anthony Woodville: Sophisticate or Schemer, was published in February 2024.

The tour starts at The River Kitchen in the Museum of Making and concludes at The Coffee House at Derby Museum and Art Gallery—the perfect opportunity to reflect on the journey over refreshments.

Don’t miss this unique chance to experience the Georgian era up close.
