The town of Derby had been an ancient borough, with borough charters dating back to 1154. [4] It was reformed to become a municipal borough in 1836 under the Municipal Corporations Act 1835, governed by a corporate body called "the mayor, aldermen and burgesses of the borough of Derby", generally known as the corporation or town council.
The area surrounding the old village centre contains seven listed buildings, the church being the oldest. [9] It dates from the 12th century, but all that remains of the original building is the ornately carved Romanesque doorway. The village became a parish in its own right in 1864 and was incorporated into the Borough of Derby in 1968.
