Astons of Coventry 1940's
The four Aston Brothers, who were recently fined £50.00 for building a garage and flat in Vequery Street, Coventry, without a licence, and
who received a cheque anonymously from a person in London, today presented a cheque for £100.00 (including the £50.00 sent from London) to Mr S.A Brown, Secretary Coventry Services Movement. Picture shows William Aston presenting the cheque to Mr Brown. Left to right are Charles Aston, George Aston, William Aston, Councillor Harry Weston, Mr Brown and Harry Aston. A suggestion has been made the flat they built should be called Aston Villa.
