Fenny Compton is a small village and civil parish in the district of Stratford-on-Avon, Warwickshire, in central England. Its name hints at historic ground conditions - "fenny" suggesting marshy land - and the village retains a rural character with a medieval parish church and a scattering of traditional stone cottages and farm buildings.
Agriculture still shapes much of the local economy, though many residents commute to nearby towns such as Banbury or to larger centres further afield. The community is active around a village hall and local pub, and the surrounding countryside offers pleasant walking and cycling, making the village a quiet base for exploring both Warwickshire and neighbouring parts of the Midlands and Cotswolds.
