Wiltshire, 1939In the small village of Alvesdon, the Castell family and their farm have been staples in the community for decades. As the threat of war edges closer to their sanctuary each day, each member of the Castell family finds themselves pushed in ways they could have never imagined. With relationships tested and torn apart, facing both personal tragedy and physical conflict, Alvesdon explores the fortunes of three generations of the Castell family from the onset of the Second World War up until the Battle of Britain in 1940.
