Ham and Stone is a small, rural civil parish in the district of Stroud, Gloucestershire, in England. Set on the edge of the Cotswolds landscape, it comprises a scattering of hamlets and farmsteads amid rolling limestone fields, hedgerows and narrow lanes rather than a single large village, which gives it a tranquil, secluded character.

The area has a long agricultural tradition and a built character of stone cottages and farm buildings, with several locally important historic structures and a close‑knit community that uses village halls and local events to stay connected. Its quiet lanes and countryside make it popular with walkers and anyone seeking a rural base within easy reach of Stroud’s markets and services.
