From the 'Turnback Tuesday' archives: The Bassett House in Derby


This week's "Turnback Tuesday" shows one of Derby's showcase hotels, The Bassett House. 

It was located at the corner of Elizabeth and Fourth Streets next to the Sterling Opera House. It burned down in 1914 and was replaced by the Clark Hotel.
