Shurdington is a semi-rural ward and village in the borough of Tewkesbury, in Gloucestershire, England, lying just south of Cheltenham on the edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It sits close to the scarp of Leckhampton Hill and benefits from easy access to the M5 corridor and the spa town's amenities, so it combines countryside views with commuter convenience.
Historically agricultural, the area retains older cottages and a parish church alongside modern housing and small businesses; community life centres on the village hall, local pub and clubs, with regular community events and conservation activities. Many residents work in nearby towns while enjoying the network of footpaths and open hillland, and local debate often balances development pressures against protecting the character of the surrounding AONB.
