Borrowash 1st railway station (site), Derbyshire
Opened in 1839 by the Midland Counties Railway, soon to become the Midland Railway, on the line from Derby to Nottingham and Leicester, this station was closed in 1871 when it was replaced by a more spacious one slightly closer to Derby.
View west at the surviving building, now a private residence. The platforms have long since been removed.

Derby Canal, Borrowash
Some restoration work has taken place here to the east of Station Road at Borrowash. Further along Borrowash Bottom Lock has also been restored. This is a magnificent effort but there is an enormous amount of work to do if the full 14 miles of the canal from Sandiacre to Swarkestone are ever to be restored.
