Bishop's Itchington is a village and civil parish in the district of Stratford-on-Avon, Warwickshire, England, set in gently rolling Warwickshire countryside. It lies close to its neighbour Long Itchington and the market town of Southam, with good road links via the A423 and the nearby M40 to Leamington Spa, Coventry and Birmingham. The "Bishop's" prefix recalls historic episcopal ownership, and the settlement still shows its medieval origins alongside later housing and amenities.
The parish retains a compact centre with a parish church, village hall, primary school and pub, and a strong community life with local clubs and annual events. While the surrounding area once supported small-scale industry and quarrying, today many residents commute to nearby towns and cities, enjoying village tranquillity, local footpaths and the patchwork of farmland that characterises this part of south Warwickshire.
