About

Aston Park sits in the Aston district, a short distance north-east of Birmingham city centre. The park is centred on Aston Hall, a 17th-century red-brick Jacobean house built for Sir Thomas Holte, whose gabled turrets and mullioned windows remain visible from the main paths. Lawns and tree-lined avenues run around the hall, with footpaths that connect the park to surrounding streets. The site is managed for public access and includes signage that explains the building’s history and the estate’s layout.

The hall contains period rooms and displays that are used for school visits and local programmes, and the stable block and nearby spaces are used for community activities. A walled garden and planted beds are maintained within the park, and the open grass areas are used for seasonal events and informal recreation. Practical information such as opening hours and scheduled tours is posted by the managing trust; visitors commonly combine a short walk through the park with a visit to the house to see its 17th-century fabric up close.
