Aston Hall is listed as being of special architectural or historical interest. Grade 2. (2) A private residence - See ground photograph. (3) Aston Hall is very interesting to the architectural historian because of its date . The parapet rises in the middle to a steep gable containing a three-light window. The four-centred arch of the central door is contained between sturdy Roman Doric columns supporting a broken pediment. The two-light windows of the front are perhaps a later addition.
