Wednesday’s History Society trip to Wirksworth provided a fascinating afternoon. The Wirksworth Heritage Centre laid on a tour round the town, followed by time spent in the Hertiage Centre.
Parwich and Alsop have had strong links to Wirksworth since at least the reign of King Canute, when our area was part of a large royal estate managed from the town. The Heritage Centre is open free of charge for the next two Wednesdays (21st & 28th October) after which it is closed for the winter. Here are few photos of our visit by Mike G, look out for more in a future History Society News Quarterly.
