Uckington is a small, mainly rural civil parish in the borough of Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire, England. Set on the fringes of the Severn Vale and beneath the Cotswold escarpment, it comprises scattered farmsteads, a handful of hamlets and winding country lanes rather than a single nucleated village.
The area retains strong agricultural roots with several historic farmhouses and listed buildings that hint at medieval origins, while modern life mixes small-scale farming and local enterprises with commuters travelling into nearby centres such as Tewkesbury, Cheltenham and Gloucester. A quiet community feel, parish meetings and informal events, plus public footpaths across hedgerow-lined fields, help keep its rural character alive.
