Adlestrop is a small village and civil parish in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England, tucked among the honey‑coloured limestone hills and dry‑stone walls typical of the area. The parish sits near the gentle valley of the River Evenlode and is a short drive from the market town of Moreton-in-Marsh, giving it a quiet, rural character with traditional Cotswold cottages and a Norman parish church.
The village is best known culturally for Edward Thomas’s poem "Adlestrop", which famously captures a moment at the former railway halt and has brought literary visitors for decades. Locally the economy leans on farming and rural tourism - walking, heritage interest and holiday lets - and the community remains small and close‑knit, preserving the area’s historic charm.
