About

Alvaston & Crewton is a residential district situated southeast of Derby city centre, bordering the River Derwent. The area is characterised by a mix of post-war housing estates and older terraced homes, with local shopping parades serving the community. Alvaston Park provides a large green space with recreational facilities, while the nearby Pride Park Stadium sits just across the river, its presence felt in the local area. The road network, including the A6 and Raynesway, defines much of its layout.

The neighbourhood is functionally connected to Derby through major bus routes and is adjacent to significant employment zones like the Pride Park business area. The historical Alvaston Hall, now a pub, hints at the area's past before its 20th-century expansion. Daily life centres on practical amenities, with schools and community centres serving the local population. The flat terrain near the river contrasts with the more suburban feel of the Crewton housing estates further inland.
