caption_attribution_description: English: Escarpment near the Graftons. Looking NE from the south of the square from the footpath on Grove Farm drive. On the land above the escarpment are the villages of Temple Grafton and Arden Grafton.
context_page_description: Temple Grafton is a village and civil parish in the Stratford district of Warwickshire, England, situated about 4 miles east of Alcester and 14 miles West of the county town of Warwick. The place name is misleading, the Knights Templar never having any association with the place but owing to a naming error made in the time of Henry VIII the mistake has been perpetuated. During the reign of Richard I the estate in fact belonged to the Knights Hospitaller. During the reign of Edward III in 1347 the village was recorded as Grafton Superior while neighbouring Ardens Grafton was named Inferior
context_section_description: The land rises to an altitude of over 300 ft. in the northern part of the parish and slopes down to about 180 ft. by the river-bank at Hillborough, 2 miles to the south. The village, with the church, stands on the edge of the hill, commanding views across the valley to Bredon Hill and the Cotswolds.
