The population of the civil parish as taken at the 2011 Census was 140.[1] Located two and a half miles south of Ashbourne, Osmaston is an archetypal English village with thatched cottages and a village pond. HistoryThe village is mentioned in the Domesday Book under the name Osmundestone; the parish was originally named Whitestone. The village church—St. Martin's—dates from 1606, although the present building was constructed in 1843. The building was previously a wickerwork construction. Points of interestThe war memorial situated at the side of the road, near the church, commemorates those lost in the First World War.[2] The only pub in the village is the Shoulder of Mutton. There is also a village hall and a primary school. Osmaston Manor was designed by Henry Isaac Stevens for Francis Wright of the Butterley Iron Company and completed in 1849. The house was demolished in 1964.[3] The estate was sold in 1888 to Sir Ian Walker's family, who had the house demolished when they moved to Okeover and adopted the Okeover name. The Walker-Okeovers still own the land; the estate hosts popular horse trials and the Ashbourne Shire Horse Show.[3] The terraces of the house's gardens are still apparent today. Osmaston Manor was used as a Red Cross hospital during World War II.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadKeyFigures.do?a=7&b=11127293&c=Osmaston&d=16&e=62&g=6413636&i=1001x1003x1032x1004&m=0&r=1&s=1459261343438&enc=1|title=Civi Parish population 2011|accessdate=29 March 2016|publisher=Office for National Statistics|work=Neighbourhood Statistics}} {{commons category}}{{Derbyshire-geo-stub}}2. ^Osmaston, Derbyshire, England - Photographs & History 3. ^1 Villages near Ashbourne (accessed 17 June 2008) 4. ^Osmaston Manor, Red Cross Hospital (BBC WW2 People's War) 4 : Villages in Derbyshire|Towns and villages of the Peak District|Civil parishes in Derbyshire|Derbyshire Dales |
