St. Alkmunds Parish Church. The Duffield church is delicated to St. Alkmund, an exiled Prince of Northumbria who was murdered in 800 A.D. in Mercia at Northworthy ( renamed Derby after a Danish Viking occupation in 877 A.D.) by bodyguards sent by the usurping King Earduff of Northumbria. The first known record of the church is in the Doomsday survey of 1086, which referred to a church and resident priest. Check out their excellent web site >> Rev. Mark Pickles Tel: 01332 841168
