The church of St Mary stands immediately beside North Aston Hall and is reached through the beautiful estate surrounding the Hall. There was a church here at least as early as 1151 when we have a record that William de Aston granted it with some land to Bradenstoke Priory in Wiltshire.
The current church dates almost entirely to the 14th century, however, mainly in Decorated Gothic style. A later Perpendicular clerestory was inserted in the 15th century to create a more spacious, light-filled interior.
