North Aston Hall, North Aston
Image: © Stephen Richards Taken: 12 Jul 2002
A rather graceless facade with an understated emphasis on the central bay, and despite superficial symmetry, a disturbing lack of the real thing. Either be properly symmetrical or go mad and completely jettison the idea - steering a middle course rarely succeeds. John Yenn worked here 1781-82, but the present appearance owes more to Benjamin Ferrey's work of c1860. Grade II listed.
