Derby is situated in the middle of England, and dates back to the Romans. The city can boast being the birth place of the industrial revolution, leaving its mark on world history. It is also home to aero engineers Rolls-Royce since 1907, train makers Bombardier and, less well known, a company called Hen Hunt. Being the cross roads of the country and a meeting place for the olden days and today, Derby is said to be one of the most haunted locations in the UK.
