Beaudesert is a village and civil parish in the Stratford-on-Avon district of Warwickshire, England, half a mile east across the River Alne to the north and west of Henley-in-Arden, to which it is closely associated and shares a joint parish council with.[1] The main village, consisting of the church and a single short street of houses, stands close to the river and directly opposite Henley Church. Behind the village to the east rises the hill, locally known as 'The Mount', crowned with the earthwork remains of Beaudesert Castle of the De Montforts.[2] For many years the name was pronounced "Belser", but is now known locally as Beaudesert, pronounced in the English and not the French fashion. According to the 2001 census it had a population of 919.
