Jorrocks pub (formerly The George), Irongate, Derby
The George Inn, in Irongate, Derby was a coaching inn used by the Duke of Devonshire as his headquarters when commanding the Derbyshire Blues, in readiness for the invasion by Charles Edward Stuart (Bonnie Prince Charlie) in 1745. When the prince arrived in Derby on 4 December, he called at the inn and demanded billets for his 9000 troops. The event is re-enacted every year on the anniversary of the Prince's arrival. The inn is now a public house called "Jorrocks", having had several different names since the 1980s.
