Send flowers to Mickleover, Derbyshire

Flower Delivery to Mickleover with Clare Florist

Mickleover is just two miles from the city centre of Derby and is known as a small suburb in the most westerly side of the city. There was once a railway line that passed through the village, with the train station being just 1 mile from the centre of the small village, and this line once formed part of the Great Northern Railway's Derbyshire Extension route from Gantham to Stafford. This section of the Great Northern Railway was built to rival the already established Midland Railway which had a monopoly over Derby at the time.

Up until 2007, Mickleover housed a small campus as part of the Univeristy of Derby which would give way to nearly 700 new homes being built. Mickleover is also home to Mickleover FC, a semi professional football team and a part of the Northern Premier league.

You can visit the nearby Silk Mill, built in 1717 to weave silk into thread and is now a world UNESCO site. This mill is believed to have been the very first of its kind in the UK, and today you can enjoy the museum and learn of its history.

Markeaton Park is a great place to visit nearby, with a mini train, play parks, half pipe for skaters, donkey rides and much more, this can be a great way to get outdoors and enjoy nature and flowers in Mickleover.
