Belper In Wartime Heritage Walk Saturday 7th November 11.00am BELPER 250

Overview

It's 107 years after the Armistice that ended the large scale fighting in the Great War.

The world wars resulted in huge mobilisations of people and material that affected everywhere and everyone in this country and beyond. It caused rapid and often destructive social, economic and political change. Belper was no exception and in a two hour walk we'll look at some of the places where this can be appreciated.

Unfortunately due to the terrain of this 1.5 mile walk, it is not suitable for wheelchairs or pushchairs.

Well behaved dogs on leads are welcome on this walk. Stout shoes recommended.

BONFIRE RADICALS

Presented by: Black Dog Radio

 BELPER: Meadows CC (info)

 Friday 13th November, 2026

 Door time: 7:30pm, start time: 8:00pm. All ages

 Music - Folk/blues/world

Event information

The electrifying sound of Birmingham’s fiery Bonfire Radicals is both intensely creative and irresistibly fun: a raucous and danceable feast of dynamic, high-octane, prog-folk music.

Their live set is a frenzy of energy – “dynamic and high octane" (Fatea Magazine) – and captures the adventurous breadth of their musical imaginations which emerge from a melting pot of original and traditional tunes from the British Isles to the Balkans. Rhythmic grooves, instrumental fireworks, rich vocal harmonies and delicate a cappella all collide and explode into a “crashing rollercoaster of sound…alive with possibility and thrills" (KLOF Radio).

"A serious powerhouse of a performance ... foot-stomping and adrenalin-powered and came on like folk music played by ravers." - The Artsdesk ★★★★

"With an electrifying global sound, the Radicals deliver a swaggering, sweaty set guaranteed to get listeners up and dancing. Exhilarating and exuberant" - Songlines ★★★★

PRESERVING BELPER’S INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE– BELPER 250

A project coordinated by Belper Historical Society (BHS), aiming to engage with communities in and around Belper who may have relatives who worked in the many Belper factories and have treasures hidden away in cupboards and dusty attics. Volunteer BHS ‘curators’ will help to collect, organise and preserve factory-related photographs, documents and artefacts, creating virtual scrapbooks.

Once catalogued and digitised, original materials will be offered to the Derbyshire Record Office for long term storage. Donated artefacts will be added to the secure BHS store, to be used in future research and exhibitions.

A BHS team will attend the monthly Belper Market, to promote the project, offer advice on materials being organised before donation, and collect donated materials. Later market dates for 2026 are 11th April, 9th May, 13th June, 11th July, 8th August, 12th September, 10th October, 14th November and 12th December.
