Map of the UK

Stretton under Fosse is a small, largely rural parish in the borough of Rugby, Warwickshire, England. Sitting beside the line of the Roman Fosse Way, its name literally means "street town" and the landscape is characterised by farmland, hedgerows and a scattering of historic cottages and farmsteads.

Historically agricultural, the area retains a quiet, village feel with a small, close‑knit community and several listed buildings that hint at its medieval and later past; today many residents commute to nearby towns while local life centres on country pursuits and occasional village events rather than a busy commercial scene.
