The Loaction
The village of Duffield provides an excellent range of amenities including a varied selection of shops, post office, library, historic St Alkmund's Church and a selection of good restaurants, medical facilities and schools including The Meadows, William Gilbert Primary Schools and the noted Ecclesbourne Secondary School. There is a regular train service into Derby City centre which lies some 5 miles to the south of the village.
