This year marks 107 years since the Armistice that ended large-scale fighting in the Great War – a turning point that reshaped the world forever.

Join us for a two-hour walking tour through Belper, where history comes alive.

This is more than just a history lesson – it’s an immersive journey into the past, giving you a new perspective on the town you thought you knew. Experience the echoes of a century-old world and see how Belper adapted, survived, and thrived in the wake of global upheaval.
