Map of the UK

Henley-in-Arden is a small historic town and ward in the district of Stratford-on-Avon, Warwickshire, England, set on the banks of the River Alne and within the remnants of the old Forest of Arden. The High Street retains a strong medieval character with timber-framed and Georgian buildings, a long market tradition and a compact street plan that reflects its origins as a market town and stopping point on historic coach routes.

Today the area combines local shops, independent businesses and commuter links - there is a railway station on the regional line and easy access to the M40 - so the community mixes long-established residents with people working in larger urban centres. Cultural life includes traditional events such as the annual Mop Fair and active local societies, while conservation protections and a well-preserved centre make it a popular spot for heritage-minded visitors.
