Long Itchington is a large village and civil parish in the Stratford-on-Avon district of Warwickshire, England. It sits a few miles east of the market town of Southam and within easy reach of Leamington Spa and Coventry, and is notable for the nearby stretch of the Grand Union Canal, which threads through attractive countryside and provides a focus for boating, fishing and riverside walks.
Historically a farming community, Long Itchington grew in the 19th century with canal-linked trade and small-scale industry such as quarrying and brick-making; the village still retains a medieval parish church, traditional cottages and a strong community life with local pubs, a primary school and events at the village hall. Its blend of rural character, canal-side green space and reasonable commuter links makes it popular with families and those seeking quieter living within reach of larger Midlands towns.
