Wootton Wawen is a compact historic parish in the district of Stratford-on-Avon, Warwickshire, England, set in rolling Warwickshire countryside beside the River Alne. The village core has a distinctly old-fashioned feel, with timber-framed cottages and lanes clustered around a medieval street plan; it appears in the Domesday Book and is noted for the ancient St Peter’s church with a rare pre‑Conquest tower.
Today the area combines a traditional rural economy with modern commuting patterns, and a small local station gives links to larger towns such as Stratford-upon-Avon and Birmingham. There remains an active village life centred on the hall, church and village green, and the conservation of listed buildings and countryside makes it popular with visitors and residents who value quiet, historic communities.
