Description

Aston House is a house dating from around 1730, with alterations made in the mid-19th century. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble, with the front featuring Flemish bond red brick and limestone ashlar dressings and quoins, all set on a limestone rubble plinth. The roof is stone slate with stone-coped gables and symmetrical stone ashlar stacks at each end. The house has a central-staircase layout and is designed in the early Georgian style, comprising two storeys and an attic with a symmetrical five-window range.

The entrance features an 18th-century six-panelled door within a wooden doorcase topped by a bracketed segmental pediment. The mid-19th century plate-glass sash windows are set in moulded stone architraves with keyed segmental-arched heads. There is an ashlar storey band and raised chamfered quoin strips, along with a moulded stone cornice and a brick parapet. The roof has three gabled dormers, one on the left retaining a moulded cornice.

At the rear, there is a two-storey service bay made of limestone rubble, featuring a stone slate roof and a brick end stack. This bay was extended further in the mid-19th century with an added bay, an outshut, and a 20th-century porch. The interior has not been inspected but is noted to contain panelling and a mid-18th-century fireplace in the room to the left.
