The Belper North Mill Trust
Who We Are
The Belper North Mill Trust was established in 1998 as a Company Limited by Guarantee and a Registered Charity.
The charitable objects of the Trust are:
- To advance the education of the public into the industrial heritage of the Derwent Valley with particular reference to Belper North Mill; and
- The conservation, maintenance and protection for the public benefit of the historical, architectural, archaeological and industrial heritage of the Derwent Valley.
What we do
The Trust is supported by the Belper North Mill Volunteers Association who operate tours and heritage walks from Archway House in Strutt’s North Mill, a former cotton-spinning mill in Belper, Derbyshire.
The North Mill and the larger Belper Mills complex, of which it is a part, together with a significant number of other buildings in Belper form the central element of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site which was inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2001 as the birthplace of the modern factory system, together with the communities and infrastructure that were developed to support it.
The Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site extends from Derby in the south to Matlock Bath in the north, along a 15-mile stretch of the River Derwent.
