The village and civil parish of Quenington sits in the eastern reaches of the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, in south‑west England. It occupies a pleasant spot beside the spring‑fed River Coln, set in the honey‑coloured limestone terrain of the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with traditional cottages, farmsteads and water meadows that give it a distinctly rural character.
Historically agricultural, the community is centred on a medieval parish church and several listed houses and barns, and has long been shaped by nearby communications such as the old Fosse Way and the market influence of Cirencester. Today the local economy still leans on farming but also on small businesses and quiet tourism - walkers, river users and people seeking village life - while seasonal events and village facilities keep a close‑knit social feel.
