DERBY PUBS

SEYMOURS

Location: At the rear of the buildings in Cheapside, the bar opens onto St Werburgh's Church Yard.

Historical Information: Following the closure of Ashley's chemist's shop, at Cheapside in 1980, the buildings at the rear were left semi-derelict until taken over by Seymour's Bar. The top floors were once used for weaving. St Werburgh's Church was the centre of a settlement named Wardwick around 700AD.

Curiosities: The wine bar is reputedly haunted by an old lady dressed in grey. Many of the sightings are accompanied by a very strong smell of lavender. Objects also get moved around or disappear, only to be found later in a completely different place - not an uncommon occurrence in many households!
