“The Story of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site” is our Children’s Guide, introducing this fascinating, special place. The short book is beautifully illustrated by local artist Rebecca Morledge. Two children from Richard Arkwright’s time guide you through the story explaining what a world heritage site is, why they are special places and why the Derwent Valley Mills are of ‘Outstanding Universal Value to Humanity’ - changing the way we live and work forever. It provides a simple way to introduce where the site is, the main locations and features and the key themes of water power, the factory system, inventions, engineering, changing lives, landscape and transport. It also introduces a young audience to the key characters who made these changes, the links between the textile industry and enslavement of people, and locations you may want to visit. Hard copies are available from our key visitor attractions or you can download a copy or watch a film of the book from here:
