Staverton is a small, largely rural civil parish in the borough of Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire, England, lying a few miles from Cheltenham and close to the M5. It combines a compact village core of older stone and brick buildings with surrounding farmland, and is notable for the presence of Gloucestershire Airport (often still called Staverton) and the light industrial and aviation-related businesses clustered around it, which give the parish an unusual mix of countryside and transport-led economy.
Historically an agricultural community, the area retains a village feel with local clubs, a village hall and a pub alongside pockets of modern housing; many residents commute to nearby towns for work while others are employed locally in aviation, engineering and service industries. Its proximity to Tewkesbury and Cheltenham means easy access to historic streets, festivals and amenities, while quiet lanes and nearby riverside walks preserve a strong rural character.
