Great Alne is a small village in Warwickshire, England, north-west of Stratford-upon-Avon, north-east of Alcester and from Warwick, on the road to Wootton Wawen.

At the 2001 Census the population was 587.

Alne, North Yorkshire
Alne is a village and civil parish in the county of North Yorkshire, England, about twelve miles north-west of York and four miles from Easingwold. The parish has a population of 711 (2001 census), increasing to 756 at the 2011 census. Etymology The village is named in the ''Domesday Book'' as part of the ancient wapentake of Bulford and owned by the church of St Peter, York. The name may be derived from the Latin word ''Alnus'' for Alder, as the village was surrounded by these trees. The name could also be derived from a river-name of the ''Alaunā'' type, derived from Brittonic ''al-'', "bright, shining" ( Welsh ''alaw'', "waterlily"). This may have been an alternative name for the River Kyle. In the 12th century, the wapentake was renamed as the wapentake of Bulmer. History The Parish used to include the nearby settlements of Tholthorpe, Aldwark, Flawith, Youlton and Tollerton, covering nearly 10,000 acres. To the north-east of the village used to be Alne Station ope ...

River Alne
The River Alne is a tributary of the Arrow and has its headwaters to the north of Wootton Wawen. Course Its source is at Pink Green (just inside Worcestershire) near Wood End; it then flows east into Warwickshire, close to Tanworth-in-Arden and on to Henley-in-Arden, where several changes to the original course of the river have been made in the past to prevent flooding. To the south near Wootton Wawen it is the main feeder for Wootton Pool. The river continues to flow generally southwards before joining with the River Arrow at Alcester, which itself joins the River Avon near Salford Priors. Watermills The first water mill was named on the early O.S.Maps as Tanworth Flour Mill although it is approximately 3/4 mile south-east of Danzey Green. There was also a windmill nearby which was dismantled and re-erected at Avoncroft Museum. Both mills continued to exist in the 20th century although they were both shown as disused on the immediate postwar maps. Next downstream was Bot ...
