Badgeworth is an electoral ward on the edge of the borough of Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire, in the west of England. It centres on a small village and surrounding farmland, lying between the larger towns of Cheltenham and Gloucester, so many residents commute to nearby urban centres while the area retains a distinctly rural character.
The ward is noted for its pockets of marsh and grassland that attract local walkers and wildlife interest, and for a mix of stone cottages, a village church and community facilities that reflect its long agricultural history. Economically it combines farming with small local businesses and a commuter population, and social life is shaped by village groups and the steady pressure of nearby development rather than heavy industry.
