Chesterfield tram outside the Red Lion at Crich Tramway Museum.

Chesterfield 7 was originally built in 1904 as an open-topped double decker by the Brush Electrical Engineering Company at Loughborough, it narrowly escaped destruction in a severe fire which gutted the Corporation tramshed in October 1916. Car 7, which was damaged in the blaze, was restored and a top canopy was added later at the start of 1919. On the closure of the tramway in 1927 it was sold as a holiday cottage and was purchased in a semi-derelict state from a site in Derbyshire by the Tramway Museum Society in 1973. Restoration was undertaken 2993-96 and since 1997 it has operated every season at Crich.
