It’s with deep regret that I inform you of the passing on the 8th December 2021 of George MULDOON, 88yrs, of Clay Cross. 

Janitor and friend to everyone at Beetwell Street for some twenty years he became part of the very fabric of C Division through the 80’s and 90’s. His cheerfulness and wicked sense of humour endeared him to all. A fine fine man.

A civilian employee, he was without doubt the best bobby Derbyshire never had.

He was an elder brother of Fran Muldoon.

RIP George. No collar number required!

​It is with sadness that I have to inform you of the death today, Monday 6th December 2021, peacefully at home of ex C/Supt Henry ‘Harry’ Alwyn CARRINGTON, 92 years.  For the last few years he was living with Dementia.  His next of kin is his wife, Mrs Claire Carrington.

Harry, as he was known, retired from the Derbyshire Constabulary in 1982 as Chief Superintendent at Headquarters (unfortunately I do not know what department).  He served as a PC in Matlock, as an Inspector at Derby and he was also seconded for several years to H.M. Inspector of Constabulary.  In his early years he played football for the Derbyshire Police team.

His funeral has been arranged for 1.30pm on Thursday 16th December 2021 at Stockport Crematorium, Buxton Road, Stockport SK2 6LS.
