Great walks around Melbourne, cafe,vintage shops

The view is worth the climb.

Lovely courtyard for refreshment break. Bar with food.

The Derby to Ashby Railway Line of the Midland Railway - now the Cloud Trail - was open for over 100 years before it closed in 1982. The 13-mile trail runs from Station Approach in Derby City Center to Top Brand Junction, Worthington, just north of Ashby. As a railway line, it was primarily a freight line, serving the quarries in the area - two of which can still be easily seen from the trail.

Although its extent in the medieval period is not known, Melbourne Pool was certainly large by the early 17th century, as shown on a map of that time. Tradition says that stone for Melbourne Castle was quarried here before the area was flooded. A map of 1787 shows the Pool extending further to the west than it does now. It provided water to Melbourne Mill. The level of the water was raised by two feet at the beginning of the 18th century, in order to work the fountains in the Hall gardens, although this flooded part of the vicarage garden. By the early 19th century the pool was silted up completely at the west end. In the 1840s it was partly filled and the rest was cleaned out, making two ornamental islands and landscaping the surrounding area. In its current form it covers some 20 acres. It is not known when it was first created, but references to a mill pool are found in the early 14th century.
