Map of the UK

Alderminster is a small village and civil parish in the district of Stratford-on-Avon in Warwickshire, lying close to the county boundary with Worcestershire. Set on the fringe of the Cotswolds, it occupies gently rolling agricultural countryside and retains a scatter of traditional stone and brick cottages and farmsteads that give it a distinctly rural character.

Historically the parish lay in Worcestershire until 20th-century boundary changes, and its economy remains rooted in farming even as many residents commute to nearby market towns such as Shipston-on-Stour and Stratford-upon-Avon. Local life is quietly community-orientated, centred on the village’s church and small facilities, offering a peaceful base with easy access to the cultural attractions of the surrounding region.
