Sinfin is a suburb of Derby, England, 3 miles (4.8 km) southwest of the city centre on its southern outskirts. The ward, which includes Osmaston as well as Sinfin itself, had a population of 15,128 in 2011. Historically, Sinfin and Osmaston were separate villages before being swallowed up by the expansion of Derby. Osmaston is characterised by inter-war housing developments while much of the housing in Sinfin is post-war. Between the two suburbs lies a more industrialised area dominated by the Rolls-Royce works.
