Derby Silk Mill Interview


Silk Mill Heritage Sign It's always a delight to be interviewed by the BBC - even if it is on a subject I know very little about!

As part of the Wikimedia Derby Backstage Pass a group of participants were invited around the mothballed Silk Mill Museum.

You can hear the full interview on the BBC iPlayer

As the iPlayer removes shows after a week, I've liberated the clip of me chatting away.

Thanks to Mark Ansell for performing the interview.

A couple of pictures of odd signs hidden away in the museum. Grinding StoneRailway Sign More photos available on Richard Mackney's blog.
