Originally The Rose and Crown was built as a wooden shed by the Kerry family in 1786, utilised for the growing coach trade in the area. In 1935, the pub was rebuilt, set further back from the road, re-opening in 1937. The grounds cover an ancient crossroads, so watch out for ghostly highwaymen when you leave!

Our menus are full of hearty favourites and country pub classics, as well as our seasonal dishes, and we’ll be ready with a well-stocked bar, including cask ales, fine wines and British gin to suit very taste - which will taste all the better when enjoyed either in our beautiful gardens or by our crackling log fires.

Our pretty white-brick pub is the gateway to rural Derbyshire, and the ideal spot from which to explore the historic and contemporary delights of Derby's Cathedral Quarter. We attract many visitors to the three golf courses nearby.
