Listed buildings in Newhall, Cheshire

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Newhall is a civil parish in Cheshire East, England. It contains 14 buildings that are recorded in the National Heritage List for England as designated listed buildings, all of which are at Grade II. This grade is the lowest of the three gradings given to listed buildings and is applied to "buildings of national importance and special interest".[1] The parish contains the village of Aston, but is otherwise almost completely rural, and its listed buildings reflect this, including farmhouses and other houses. The Shropshire Union Canal runs through the parish, and there are two listed buildings associated with this, a bridge and a milepost. Also listed are a boundary stone, a telephone kiosk, and a lychgate.
