Osmaston Hall, Former country house in Derby, England.
Osmaston Hall was a country house in Derby set within expansive grounds that featured gardens, a small lake, and open land near Ascot Drive. The property occupied a significant area designed for comfortable living and leisure.
Robert Wilmot, High Sheriff of Derbyshire, built the hall in 1696 and carried out a rebuilding project in 1702. The Midland Railway Company took over the property in 1890 and eventually demolished it in 1938.
The residence contained numerous paintings and served as a meeting place for the Derbyshire Golf Club between 1892 and 1898.
The site itself is no longer accessible to the public as it is now part of an industrial area. However, a section of the former parkland remains open to visitors as a public park.
The estate once housed a collection of valuable paintings and served as a gathering place for the Derbyshire Golf Club between 1892 and 1898. Today, the industrial estate and park that occupy the former grounds preserve a fragmented memory of the property.
