Priors Marston is a small rural village and civil parish in the district of Stratford-on-Avon in Warwickshire, England. Its name betrays medieval origins - “Priors” reflecting historical monastic ownership and “Marston” meaning a farm by marshy ground - and the centre still retains an old parish church and a scattering of traditional cottages set in rolling countryside.
The local economy remains largely agricultural, though many residents commute to nearby market towns and to Stratford-upon-Avon. Community life is lively for a settlement of its size, with a village hall, primary school and events that bring people together; it’s also popular with walkers and anyone after a quiet slice of Warwickshire village character.
