Aston Clinton House, Country estate in Aston Clinton, Buckinghamshire, England

Located at the foot of the Chiltern Hills, Aston Clinton House featured neo-Georgian and Italianate architectural elements, complete with verandahs and a porte-cochère.

Anthony Nathan de Rothschild purchased the estate in 1851 and commissioned architect George Henry Stokes and builder George Myers to modernize the property by 1853.

The Rothschild family contributed to local development by establishing two schools, constructing workers' cottages, and building a village hall in the surrounding community.

The property functioned as the Green Park Hotel, a military headquarters, a hospital, and a boys' prep school before its demolition between 1956 and 1958.

During World War I, the house served as headquarters for the 21st Infantry Division, where soldiers trained for gas warfare on Rothschild land.
