Alrewas is a large village and civil parish in the district of Lichfield, Staffordshire, England, set in low-lying countryside where the River Trent and the Trent and Mersey Canal run close by. Its compact historic centre of timber-framed and Georgian cottages sits alongside towpaths and country lanes, making it popular with walkers, boaters and day visitors heading for the nearby city of Lichfield.

Although it has medieval roots and a notable parish church, the village now mixes commuting families and local trades with a lively community scene - pubs, a village hall and seasonal events - and benefits from being the home of the National Memorial Arboretum, which attracts national visitors and supports the local economy through tourism and related services.
