Southrop is a small village and civil parish in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England, lying close to the county boundary with Oxfordshire and set within the rolling limestone countryside of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It retains the classic Cotswold feel with honey‑coloured stone houses, narrow lanes and a compact village green surrounded by farmland.
Historically rooted in agriculture, the village contains several historic buildings and a traditional parish church, and its community remains small and active with village events, conservation interests and a mix of farming and commuter households. Its quiet lanes, footpaths and occasional open‑garden events make it popular with walkers and visitors seeking a quintessential rural English village experience.
