People tend not to associate Belper with military history, so it usually comes as a surprise just how much the town actually has. This three-hour walk around the town tells the story of Belper’s military history, from the 1700s and the steps taken by the Strutts to protect the mills, to the 20th Century and one of the biggest secrets of the Second World War.
