Thurvaston

Thurvaston is a small village in South Derbyshire.

[1] As at the census 2011, the population is now listed in the civil parish of Osleston and Thurvaston.

Recent excavations have revealed extensive archaeological remains dating back from before 1400.

[2] In 2006, both Thurvaston and nearby Sutton-on-the-Hill were identified as sites for future housing.

This was based on a survey which identified the high cost of housing and the high number of bedrooms per residence compared with the small number of children in the area.
