Any UK server location in Derby, possible for colocation?

Hello host providers. Just wondering if any one do colocation in Derby, or near (Nottingham, Leister) for a 2U server (Dell R730).
Budge: £50 per month. Maybe too low?
Doesn't really have any requirement, just anything suitable for a R730.
Thanks.

There's the data centre in Coventry which isn't that far away and seems popular with low-end providers. Not sure who actually owns it though, as a lot of small companies refer to it as "our datacentre" when they probably only have a couple of racks. I think these guys are probably the actual data centre, but I could be wrong: https://ukservers.com/colocation/server-colocation/
From googling I've seen a lot of options in Derby, might be in the same data centre.
ukservers own the facility, everyone else is just falsely saying the DC is theirs.
Probably if they say Derby, they actually will be in Derby. I only know this one because a lot of low-end providers use it, and I recognised the location because years ago I used to live nearby.
