Bench mark on Old Vicarage wall
This bench mark was established in 1851 during the First primary levelling of England & Wales, and was levelled with a height of 265.8810 feet [81.0405 metres] above mean sea level (Liverpool datum). It was included on the Sheffield to Birmingham (Branch Levelling to Darley Church) levelling line. The surveyor's description was "No. 6. Mark on brick wall in front of the Reverend Mr. Griffith's house ; 0.92 ft. above surface" (p364). The 1881-2 map shows this mark on the west face of the wall, east side of road, 5m south of the entrance. It is not shown on subsequent maps. The arrow is lost to a spalled brick, but the datum line is clear.

The local nature reserve
This is the Darley and Nutwood Local Nature Reserve. It looks unkempt but that is deliberate as it is best for the wildlife. It was a warm sunny day and there were many butterflies, more than I have seen for quite a while.

Darley and Nutbrook Nature Reserve
This small patch of land is bordered by the River Derwent and the suburb of Darley Abbey. It is quite rough land and as such will, hopefully, never be developed. It offers wildlife a small respite from busy Derby.
