Osmaston is a small rural civil parish in Derbyshire Dales, Derbyshire, in the rolling limestone country on the fringes of the Peak District, not far from the market town of Ashbourne. The landscape is typical dales country of hedged fields, small woods and scattered farmsteads, with quiet lanes and stone-built cottages giving a very traditional Derbyshire feel.
Historically the parish grew up around farming and retains a sense of continuity with medieval roots, visible in older buildings and field patterns; agriculture remains important, though many people now commute to Ashbourne or Derby. Its proximity to attractive walking country and the gentle rural character make it a peaceful place valued for heritage, outdoor access and community village life.
