Alveston is a village in Warwickshire, England, within the civil parish of Stratford-upon-Avon, and around 2 miles (3.2 km) north-east of Stratford town centre. It is located to the south of, and within a bend of the River Avon.Hemingford House there is the youth hostel for Stratford-upon-Avon. The village was represented by Alveston F.C. between 1924 and 2017, when they folded. For most of its history, the club played in the Stratford & District League and the Midland Football Combination. Alveston was the home of the playwright J B Priestley (and his wife Jacquetta Hawkes), who lived at Kissing Tree House in the village, in his later years, until his death in 1984. The house was called Avonmore in the 1901 census and his secretary lived in Avonmore Cottage which is still there in Kissing Tree Lane.
