The River Stour is a river in Warwickshire, England. It is a tributary of the Avon, which it joins at Stratford-upon-Avon. The source of the River Stour is not as sometimes stated in Traitors Ford south-west of Sibford Gower but in a spring some 3 miles to the East near Highways Farm at Wigginton Heath; it joins the Avon close to Stratford racecourse.
The River Stour passes through the town of Shipston-on-Stour. The A3400 road roughly follows the course of the river to Stratford-upon-Avon, through the villages of Halford, Alderminster, Newbold-on-Stour, Atherstone-on-Stour and Clifford Chambers.
