Now I thought I was done with stories of Wirksworth, which is a small market town in Derbyshire.*
But I overlooked its town hall, and because I haven’t added a new story to the series, Celebrating our Municipal Town Halls for a while, here is Wirksworth’s.**
Th foundation stone was laid in 1871, and if you want more, I suggest you follow the link to an excellent account of the building.***
After all I never steal the research of other people.
