History

Alverton historically formed part of Kilvington parish in Newark wapentake. It appears in the 1086 Domesday Book as Alvretun and Alvritun.[5] The township was recorded in 1832 as having only 16 inhabitants. It had been enclosed in 1806. The Lord of the Manor was recorded as Rev. Dr. Staunton, and its "two farmers" as Robert Cross and Charles Neale.[6] In 1870–72 it had seven houses and a population of 40.[7]

Ghosts

The former Staunton Church of England School in the village is now a private house, said to be haunted by a teacher once murdered there. There have been two purported sightings of a ghost at another house, The Chestnuts, each describing the figure of an elderly lady in Victorian garb, thought to be a former sempstress to Queen Victoria, Mary Brown, who had returned to Alverton as housekeeper to her widowed brother and ruled his four children "with a rod of iron".[8]
