Arley Green is a hamlet in Cheshire, England, within the parish of Aston By Budworth. The buildings originally formed Cowhouse Farm. Rowland Egerton-Warburton, the then owner of nearby Arley Hall, converted the half-timbered barn into a school in the 1830s and adapted another 18th-century building into a terrace of Tudor-style buildings. The farmhouse was converted into a parsonage. All three buildings are Grade II listed.

Aston Park, Cheshire
Aston Park is a Queen Anne country house in the parish of Aston by Budworth, Cheshire, England, built in 1715. The first mention of a building on the site is in the Domesday Book from 1086.
It is constructed in brick with stone dressings, and has a slate roof. The house has two storeys and an attic, and its front elevation is symmetrical with five bays. Its façade is decorated between the first floor windows with diapering in heart and diamond patterns. An extension was added to the right of the building during the 20th century. The house is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building.
In 2018 the owner Laurence Daw was given a community order, together with a fine of £2,250 and costs of £65,000, for undertaking unlicensed redevelopment at the house which Cheshire East Council described as "reckless vandalism". Damage included demolishing a 19th-century servants' wing, a cheese room and an entrance for tradespeople, as well as replacing sash windows and other interior damage. The house subsequently required one of its walls to be stabilised.

Arley Hall
Arley Hall is a country house in the village of Arley, Cheshire, England, about 4 miles (6 km) south of Lymm and 5 miles (8 km) north of Northwich. It is home to the owner, Viscount Ashbrook, and his family. The house is a Grade II* listed building, as is its adjacent chapel. Formal gardens to the southwest of the hall are also listed as Grade II* on the National Register of Historic Parks and Gardens. In the grounds are more listed buildings, a cruck barn being listed as Grade I, and the other buildings as Grade II.
The hall was built for Rowland Egerton-Warburton between 1832 and 1845, to replace an earlier house on the site. Local architect George Latham designed the house in a style which has become known as Jacobethan, copying elements of Elizabethan architecture. A Gothic Revival chapel designed by Anthony Salvin was subsequently built next to the hall. By the mid-20th century, parts of the house were in poor condition and were demolished, to be replaced by five private homes in a matching architectural style.
The present gardens were created in the 1830s, and were developed during the 20th century. The garden's herbaceous border was the first of its type in England. The house and its gardens have been open to the public since the 1960s, and have also been used as a film location. Stockley Farm, part of the Arley estate, is an additional visitor attraction for children and families.
