Derby, like many cities, has a history of some amazing buildings and architecture, many having a significant historical value.
Through this year’s theme of architecture, we will be exploring some of these images held in our extensive archive, which holds over a million images.
See the changing face of Derby, not just through photographs from the start of our business, but those from more recent times; the newly built Royal Infirmary juxtaposed with the building of Willington power station, similarly the Arboretum juxtaposed with images of River Gardens.
You will be able to tour our Victorian building, which is an architectural jewel in itself. See the original showroom, first and second-class waiting rooms, original daylight studio, in addition to the rooms which were home to backroom functions, such as retouching and framing.
Our knowledgeable volunteers will be on hand to provide information about each room, and QR codes* provide an additional level on information about specific objects or rooms.
*Please note you will need your mobile phone and earpieces to use this additional feature.
Thursday 18 September - tour starts at 11am
Friday 19 September - tour starts at 11am
Saturday 20 September - tour starts at 10am
Pre-booking only.
There is limited on-street parking in the roads around the studio. The closest car park is 300 yards away located behind the Stuart Hotel on London Road. Ours is a Victorian building, as such it is not suitable for people with limited mobility, as stairs are used to access the first and second floors.
Booking essential: Call 01332 345224 or email office@wwwinter.co.uk.
Places are limited, so early booking is recommended.
