The village has a rich history dating back to the 11th century when it was mentioned in the Domesday Book. Today, Aldermaston is a popular tourist destination and attracts visitors from all over the world.

One of the most notable landmarks in Aldermaston is the Aldermaston Court. This historic building was built in the 17th century and is now used as a conference center. The building is surrounded by beautiful gardens and is a popular spot for weddings and other events. Another popular attraction in Aldermaston is the St. Mary's Church.
