Derby Catacombs


The Derby Catacombs are a series of tunnels running beneath the city of Derby, most notably beneath the Marketplace and Guildhall. Access to the tunnels is available via a back room of the nearby Tiger pub.
During the Victorian era, the tunnels were used to ferry prisoners between the police station at "Lock-Up Yard" and the Courts of Assizes, held at the Guildhall. It is reported that Alice Wheeldon was transported through these tunnels, and locals report her spirit haunts the tunnels.
