1885–1918: The local government district of Aston Manor.
The constituency was created, as a borough constituency in Warwickshire, for the 1885 general election. In 1885 the area was to the north of the Birmingham parliamentary borough. Birmingham, which from 1889 was a county borough with city status, gradually expanded into adjacent areas.
The constituency bordered to the west Handsworth; to the north and east Tamworth and to the south Birmingham East and Birmingham North.
By 1918 the Aston area had been incorporated within the growing city of Birmingham. For the 1918 general election, the Aston Manor constituency was abolished, and parts of its territory were incorporated in a new borough constituency known as Birmingham Aston. The new seat comprised parts of the then County Borough of Birmingham wards of All Saints, Aston, Lozells and St. Mary's. The seat was smaller and more the northern part of central Birmingham than Aston Manor had been.Members of Parliament
