The Cathedral of All Saints (known as Derby Cathedral) is one of the smallest in England, with…read moreLeicester and Birmingham cathedrals. Visiting is free of charge, naturally, and the church will be open to visitors during the day. Photography is also allowed, and free. The church is located at the heart of the so-called "cathedral district" - no surprises there - but be aware that it is quite a walk away from the train station, less so from the main bus depot. This is a small but very nice church which looks quite impressive on the outside and is rather stylish inside, although there are no spectacular artworks or artefacts to be found here (except maybe the grave slab of the famous painter Joseph Wright of Derby, whose works you can find a-plenty at the warmly recommended local art gallery, which is less than a 10 minute walk from this place - and some impressive metalwork). However, the cathedral exudes a warm and comforting atmosphere that will certainly appeal to regular church-goers. Staff are very nice and forthcoming, too. See my photos for reference.

Derby Cathedral stands at 65 meters tall located on Iron Gate in Derby city centre, it is a short…read morewalk away from the city's main shops and restaurants. It is a Grade I listed building, designated in 1952. It was built between 1530 and 725 before becoming a Cathedral in 1927, with a recent renovation between 2015 and 2016. A pretty minor Cathedral, which isn't overly impressive other than the clock tower. Nothing too outstanding and while it is impressive as with any Cathedral, it lacks that special unique feeling with it being too minor or ordinary. I do feel the lighting could be better to make it stand out more at night, which they seem to have stopped? 2*

Home of Chesterfield's famous "crooked" spire, which was added to the tower in the 14th century. A…read morestunning 228 feet tall, which is amazing when you think that it was built in 1362. It is "crooked" for two reasons. First is the twist, which was apparently by design. The second is that back in those days, there weren't too many skilled craftsmen. The Black Death killed lots of people, donchaknow. I didn't go in, I just stopped to take pictures. So I can't tell you what the inside looks like or how the services are.

The verger who took our tour was friendly and fearless in his assent of the tower and spire. It's not a climb for the fainthearted but the views are great and the kids loved it. And for £3.50 it was a bargain. (Also posted this under 'Crooked Spire)

An interesting Anglican church in Buxton. I think I'm right in saying that it's a very unusual…read moreAnglican church in that it doesn't have a parish (like virtually every other Anglican church in the country) -- it just sort of exists by itself. The church is particularly well-decorated and well-equipped with smart rooms which support a large range of mid-week community activities. It's an unashamedly evangelical church with a strong emphasis on the Bible. It tends to be quite busy on a Sunday morning but that means there are always people around to talk to. All in all, a friendly church with an unusual background -- definitely worth a visit.
