WELCOME TO THE NORTH WESSEX DOWNS WALKING FESTIVAL
Top class walking country - big skies, wooded valleys, stunning landscape – we have it all here in the North Wessex Downs! And our very first walking festival is in celebration of it all. June is the perfect time to get outside, stretch your legs, breathe deeply, venture into unknown territory – maybe even make new friends or learn a new skill along the way. Discover Aston Tirrold & Upthorpe’s History and Wildlife on June 13th. Click the photo for more details and booking information.
LOWER SPEEDS FOR A SAFER COMMUNITY
Just about everyone who lives in the Astons is aware of the need for careful and considerate driving in our community.
We don't have much in the way of pavements and there's no streetlighting - so extra care is needed whenever we drive round our narrow and twisty roads. Added to this, we enjoy walking our children, dogs and many locals ride horses.
So really, 20mph is plenty fast enough for cars and bikes. We hope it will be respected by all who live in, or pass through our community.
Events
Don't forget to put your Green and food bins out today (+brown garden bins)

Welcome to the Astons Community Website
The Astons community has a lot going for it. Our new website is designed to make it quick and easy for you to keep in touch. Browse the latest News and Events, check out the numerous Clubs & Organisations, book the village hall for an event, research our parish’s history and much more.
For Residents and Visitors
For residents, we want to build and maintain the essential online resource of choice. For visitors, we want to give you a flavour of what makes our two villages such a lovely place to live. You can help us greatly by letting us know if you think we can do either of these things better. webmaster@theastons.net
How Do Burglars See Your Home?
With lighter evenings now is the time to Spring into Action and review your home security.
The best way of doing this is to look at your property through the eyes of a burglar. Think about how you would break in if you locked yourself out. You may be surprised at how easy it would be.
