• To keep in the Group’s archives documents, photographs, newspaper articles etc
           which relate to the history of the district.
• To investigate and record the past history of the district.
• To publish material on various aspects of the district and its inhabitants.
• To hold meetings and arrange visits in furtherance to the above aims.

In August, September, October, November, January, February, March and April we meet on the last Tuesday of the month at St Peter’s Church Hall, Chellaston at 19.30.

In December we have a social event for members only and in May, June and July we have outdoor meetings.

Chellaston History Group initiated the Chellaston Oral History Project, the aim being to record for future generations the memories of people who rem

ember the village before it became part of Derby. This book is called Chellaston Voices and was produced mainly by two members of the group, Mick and Carol Appleby, with help from other members and of course the contributors.

Note, the History Group's emblem is the Chellaston Standing Angel (1419), made from alabaster, by Prentys and Sutton. For more information and a larger picture, please click here
