Tramway in Crich village

Crich Tramway Village is the recreated historic village that is the setting for the National Tramway Museum in Derbyshire.[1] The village is set around a period street, with several re-built buildings from all over the country, including the facade of the former Assembly Rooms from Derby and the Red Lion Inn from Stoke-on-Trent. The village also includes a cafe, old-style sweetshop, and the museum's tram depots.

The Village's collection not only covers buildings, but also many items of street furniture, for example the fence and gates adorning the entrance to the tram depot, which come from the long demolished Fruit & Vegetable Market in the Bull Ring, Birmingham.
