Drone footage from a Visit up to Barrow Hill Roundhouse in Derbyshire
Barrow Hill Roundhouse is the last surviving railway roundhouse in the United Kingdom with an operational turntable.
Built in 1870, it was threatened with demolition in 1991 when the site was closed by British Rail. It was saved by a group of dedicated volunteers who have transformed it into a unique railway museum and events venue.
Work is underway on a £5.9 million state-of-the art railway innovation, research and training centre.
The new building is being constructed next to the Coaling Stage, which has been temporarily closed to all visitors. The very popular Signal Box tours will continue but with revised access arrangements.
Closed when visited Monday to Friday
Open every weekend
