Welcome to the Calver Weir Restoration Project
We are a registered charity formed in 2004 with the objective of saving the weir from collapse and restoring it to good condition. Calver Weir is a Listed Grade 2 structure, built in the 19th century to provide water to power cotton spinning at Calver Mill, on the River Derwent, in the Peak District National Park, Derbyshire.
Now that the restoration of the weir has been achieved, CWRP is working hard to attract a greater range of visitors to the area, improve footpaths and access points, and carry out important conservation work.
