Asterley Hall is a heritage-led project focused on the sensitive repair, adaptation, and long-term stewardship of a historic country house, ensuring it remains viable for contemporary use while preserving its architectural and historic significance.

In 2000 it was carefully repaired and converted into a five-bedroom house on three floors, with the retention of the original attic stairs and the introduction of a new staircase. A sympathetic small tower extension, with a double jettied roof, was built to accommodate the new staircase and it was clad in horizontal oak boards. New fenestration was designed throughout and the important historic mill machinery, the exposed axle and wheel gear, was retained and repaired. A new jetty/pier was also designed over the mill forebay to create a new outdoor space serving the kitchen and the tower extension.
