===Derwent Arms=== [[Image:Derwent Arms.jpg|thumb|right|The Derwent Arms]] The Derwent Arms, in the old part of the village, was built in 1823 when it was known as The Black Bull. It consisted of the main pub house and a stable for two horses with a granary over it. To the right were two cow houses with a small orchard and pig pen behind. In front of this was another outbuilding. In the early years the pub had a wash house. Later, a long cattle shed for eight to nine cows was added onto the west side of the stable.<ref>{{cite book|last=Wilde|first=David|title=Osbaldwick: A suburban village|editor=David Wilkinson}}</ref> It was later renamed The Derwent Arms after the [[Derwent Valley Light Railway]] which used to run through the village. It currently consists of a [[Stucco|rendered]] brick building with the public rooms on the ground floor and accommodation for the owners above. The pub has a large field which is used to host community events such as the village fair and a [[Guy Fawkes Night|bonfire night]].<ref>{{cite news |last1=Cooper |first1=Joe |title=Plan put forward to save York pub β just 350m away from another that has been left to rot |url=https://yorkmix.com/plan-put-forward-to-save-york-pub-just-350m-away-from-another-that-has-been-left-to-rot/ |access-date=21 August 2024 |work=YorkMix |date=5 April 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=Remember, remember |url=https://www.yorkpress.co.uk/news/7918884.remember-remember/ |access-date=21 August 2024 |work=York Press |date=31 October 2002}}</ref> The Magnet pub, near the newer houses on Osbaldwick Lane, closed in 2018.<ref>{{cite web |title=Heritage pub to become homes |url=https://www.yorkpress.co.uk/news/19129628.york-pub-magnet-osbaldwick-become-homes/ |website=York Press |access-date=9 November 2023 |first=Chloe |last= Laversuch|date=2 March 2021}}</ref>
