Map of the UK

Temple Grafton is a small, rural village and civil parish in the district of Stratford-on-Avon, Warwickshire, England, set among rolling farmland and lanes a few miles from Alcester and within easy reach of Stratford-upon-Avon. The landscape is typical Warwickshire countryside with hedged fields, pockets of woodland and the nearby River Arrow, making it popular with walkers and anyone exploring Tudor and Shakespeare country.

The village has historic roots - its “Temple” prefix reflects medieval ownership by the Knights Templar - and retains a compact core of historic buildings and a parish church with medieval elements. Economically it remains largely agricultural with a modest local community whose social life centres on village events, the church and occasional local gatherings, while many residents commute to nearby towns for work.
