Preston on Stour is a small village and civil parish on the banks of the River Stour in the Stratford-on-Avon district of Warwickshire. Set in a landscape of meadows and arable fields, it has a scatter of historic cottages and farmsteads and retains a quiet, rural character typical of the region.
Historically centred on agriculture and the parish church, the community today combines farming with residents who commute to nearby towns in the Stratford-on-Avon area; village life revolves around local gatherings and the riverside, which attracts walkers and birdwatchers, while the wider cultural attractions of the district sit close enough to influence its economy without overwhelming its village feel.
