Elmore is a small, distinctly rural parish in the district of Stroud, Gloucestershire, England, lying close to the floodplain of the River Severn and on the fringe of the rolling hills that lead up to the Cotswolds. The landscape is dominated by farmland, woodland and a scattering of historic lanes, and it sits within easy reach of Gloucester and Cheltenham, so it combines quiet village character with good access to larger towns.
The parish is best known for the historic country house Elmore Court, long associated with a single family and now much in the public eye as an events and hospitality venue; the presence of the estate gives the area a palpable sense of history. Local life remains largely agricultural, with small-scale farming and equestrian activity alongside residents who commute into nearby urban centres, and community activity tends to revolve around the church, the estate and occasional public events that draw visitors to the village.
