It is on to the England-Wales border, marked by Prince's Oak. The River Severn runs just north of the village, and most of the village is in a designated conservation area.[1] Alberbury Castle is at the centre of the village as is Loton Hall and the attached deer park.[2] Alberbury is home to Loton Park, with the Loton Park Hill Climb run by the Hagley and District Light Car Club. The village also has a cricket club. As part of the development of Central Ammunition Depot Nesscliffe in World War II, an ammunition depot was built beneath Loton Park.[3] This was used for storage of Incendiary ammunition and chemical weapons shells and was operated in co-operation with and guarded by the United States Army Air Forces.[4][5] The village hall hosts meetings of the Women's Institute and the Young Farmers' Club. In 2008, the village made regional news due to a spectacular Christmas lights display put on at a local farm.[6] See also
