Quedgeley (parish) is a civil parish on the southern edge of the city of Gloucester in the county of Gloucestershire, England. Once a modest agricultural village, it has grown into a suburban community with a mix of older village streets and post‑war and more recent housing estates, so it now feels very much part of the city while still retaining pockets of green space and village character.

Economically and socially Quedgeley (parish) combines local shops, schools and community groups with light industrial and business parks that serve the wider Gloucester area; many residents commute via close road links to Gloucester, Cheltenham and the M5 corridor. There are also visible traces of its longer history in the local churches and street patterns, and a lively parish council and volunteer organisations that keep a strong local identity despite modern expansion.
