Welcome to Crich Heritage Partnership
The Crich Heritage Partnership was formed to help conserve and maintain the heritage of Crich Parish, but also the history of this corner of south east Derbyshire
Our interests cover the history of Crich, Fritchley, Whatstandwell, Lea and Holloway and that of the surrounding areas.
Our aim is to help keep people informed about our rich heritage and history. Made especially so as we are situated on the bottom right side of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site.
We hold meetings throughout the year which everybody is welcome to attend. You will find a programme on the next page.
If you are interested in the history of Crich and its surrounding area, please come and join us.

It will also examine three of the most important encounters between Royalists and Parliamentarians in which Derbyshire was involved - the Siege of Lichfield, the Battle of Hopton Heath & the reduction of Wingfield Manor
