 During the works, the site of the original church was uncovered, along with a stone sarcophagus believed to be St Alkmund's and several other artefacts.These are now on display in Derby Museum and Art Gallery, together with remnants of a tall stone cross carved on four sides with birds and animals, which was removed from the churchyard during the 19th century.Today, the former church site is taken over by Derby's inner ring road, called St Alkmund's Way (A601), and little trace of the church is to be found.
