A popular outing from Stratford is to Alcester (8mi/13km west of Stratford; pop. 4,500). The town features many old half-timbered houses, including the Old Malt House (about 1500) and the picturesque Town Hall.
There are a number of well-preserved Tudor style houses and the Old Rectory is a good example of Georgian architecture. Ragley Hall in Alcester is the home of the Jerwood Sculpture Park, a collection of 20th and 21st century sculpture.
