St Mary's Bridge Chapel Trust, Derby
Administrative History
The ancient church of St Mary's Chapel on the Bridge was believed to have been attached to the collegiate church, with which it passed to Derby Corporation in 1548-1549 following the Dissolution of the Monasteries. It later came into private hands and was used as dwelling houses and a carpenter's shop before being briefly re-used for ecclesiastical purposes from 1873 by the parish of St Alkmund.
It was acquired and restored by the Derbyshire Archaeological and Natural History Society in 1928, but the property was later made over to the Provost and Chapter of Derby Cathedral. The Chapel is now run by a charitable trust set up by a Charity Commission Order of 1949.
Custodial History
Some of the records of the Chapel Trust were originally held among those of the Cathedral Church of Derby All Saints, their old reference numbers being D3372/47-52. The rest of the records were deposited by the secretary of the Chapel Trust between July 1997 and January 2011.
