Village Hall - Osmaston, Derbyshire - Thatch Cottages on Waymarking.com

This thatched village hall is part of the model estate village constructed in the 1850s by the owner of Osmaston Hall.

"Osmaston in Derbyshire, is known as an estate village. Most of the buildings seen today were built around 1850 when the village was redeveloped to serve Osmaston Manor. Osmaston Manor was being constructed at that time, as a home for the wealthy industrialist Francis Wright, whose family owned the Butterley Ironworks near Ripley.

Osmaston takes the appearance of a picturesque model village, with its brick built thatched cottages, village hall, primary school, duckpond, church, and of course pub."
