Andy's Driving videos around Derby, Derbyshire, UK :
Are you an ex-pat of Derby, feeling homesick? Or perhaps you just want a clear way of giving someone directions to a location in Derby or just want to show people your Derby Street. Well in this video and the many others I have made, you will be able to take a virtual drive around the city of Derby's streets as though you were in the driving seat. I use a dash-mounted camera, Traffic lights and heavy traffic have been edited out.

If you want to see more details then please click on the "HD" button so it turns red, then click the fullscreen icon. (you will need a fast pc and fast broadband connection to cope with it!).

Points of Interest :
0:00 Journey starts near the top of Lodge Lane in Derby, Derbyshire, U.K.
0:16 Turn left onto Garden Street
0:31 Turn onto Kedleston Road at the Five Lamps
1:13 On the right (through all those trees) is the former Parkfield Ceders school, today this is Markeaton Primary school (I think?)
1:18 On the left is the Jonty Farmer pub
1:30 Going over the A38

2:37 The Markeaton Pub.
2:42 Eat dinner at this pub then reverse back.
3:08 Arrive back at turning for Markeaton Lane.
Of course I did not really reverse all the way back, its just the video played backwards at 4x the speed then linked into another recording where I turned off down Markeaton Lane (recorded on 8th May 2009)
3:28 Bryers Heritage Farm (Was called Home Farm).
3:29 Markeaton Garden Centre on the left. http://www.markeaton-garden-centre.co.uk/
