Our Ripley

The mill complex at Cromford has been described as the most important preserved textile heritage site in the world, as shown by its World Heritage Site status. It is from these buildings that Sir Richard Arkwright developed technology that changed the world we live in, giving rise to the industrial revolution by creating the modern factory system. Cromford Mill is the perfect destination for a day out. With a variety of shops, two cafes serving delicious homemade lunches, a gallery, guided tours throughout the day, as well as many events taking place throughout the year, there really is something for everyone.
