The Der­went Val­ley is a World Heri­ta­ge Site which includes an array of 19th and 18th cen­tu­ry cot­ton gene­ra­tors, as well as workers living quar­ters. It is belie­ved to be the ori­gin of modern manu­fac­tu­ring and is an important part of a cul­tu­ral land­scape of signi­fi­cant his­to­ri­cal inte­rest. The­se mills from the past were among the first to make use of board room water power in a mas­si­ve way and intro­du­ced a distinct style of con­s­truc­tion to the land­scape of the rural. They also play­ed a cru­cial role in the trans­for­ma­ti­on of agri­cul­tu­re into indus­tri­al pro­duc­tion.

The­se indus­tri­al sites were built to accom­mo­da­te the orga­nic spin­ning tech­no­lo­gy deve­lo­ped by Richard Ark­w­right during the 18th cen­tu­ry. They were the basis for fac­to­ries all over the world. They were powered by the Der­went River. Der­went and were often con­s­truc­ted in con­junc­tion with other cot­ton mills. Later, the Der­went Val­ley was absor­bed into the city of modern Der­byshire.
