Derbyshire

Right opposite Long Eaton Railway Station is a small micropub with a subtle railway theme. So next stop – the Sawley Junction.

As a huge supporter of micropubs I was more than delighted when, in 2016, a new small watering hole would open up in my old home village of Duffield in Derbyshire – naturally I just had to pay a visit to The Town Street Tap.

Often I like to leave the car at home and travel by bus instead, and one such option available for traveling between Derby and Nottingham is Trent Barton’s Red Arrow coach service. Here I explain why I think this frequent service is a better alternative to driving by car.
