Watermoor is an electoral ward within the market town of Cirencester in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England. It covers mainly residential streets to the south of the town centre and is characterised by a mix of Victorian and more modern housing, local shops and community facilities, with fairly easy access to the services and historic fabric of Cirencester, long known for its Roman origins as Corinium.
The ward benefits from proximity to the rolling countryside of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, making it popular with commuters who value both town amenities and nearby walking routes. Economically it is driven by local services and the wider town’s retail, education and tourism sectors, while community groups and parish-level activity help maintain a lively local social scene.
