Description

Osmaston Primary School and the attached house were built around the 1840s by Stevens of Derby. The building is constructed from coursed squared rock-faced limestone with sandstone dressings and features Welsh slate roofs with stone coped gables, moulded kneelers, and finials. It has stone gable end and lateral stacks and consists of one and two storeys with an irregular plan.

The east elevation shows the school house on the right and the school on the left. The house is two storeys high, featuring a gabled bay on the right with a canted bay window on the ground floor and a 2-light chamfered mullion window above. To the left, there is a 20th-century doorway with a gabled dormer above, which also has a 2-light chamfered mullion window. The school to the left has unequal 5-light mullion windows flanking a projecting gabled bay that includes a pair of single light chamfered mullion windows, topped with a single dripmould.

On the gable, there is an inscription that reads: "This stone was placed here by the tenants of the Osmaston estate in grateful recognition of the munificence of the builder of these Schools Reading Room and Parish Church 1873." The staggered twin gabled south elevation features a 4-light chamfered mullion window on the left gable and a similar 2-light window above it. The right gable has a matching 4-light mullioned and transom window.
