Aston Clinton is a village and civil parish that sits close to the main A41 road in Buckinghamshire, England between Tring and Aylesbury.
The Aston part of the village name was used in the company name of the car manufacturer Aston Martin, after co-founder Lionel Martin had great success in the hill climb competition up Aston Hill.
In the heart of the village is the Anthony Hall which was donated to the village by the widow of Anthony Nathan de Rothschild.
Aston Butterworth was a Formula One constructor from the United Kingdom.
The team was created by racers Archie Butterworth and BillAston, who decided to build a car for Formula 2; they did so and raced it in April, 1952 in the Lavant Cup at Goodwood, where they arrived in eighth position, with Aston at the wheel.
Aston continued to appear in races throughout the 1953 season but there was never enough money to develop the program properly and when the new F1 regulations came in 1954 the story of Aston-Butterworth came to an end.
