Southam is a traditional market town in the district of Stratford-on-Avon, Warwickshire, England. Set amid gently rolling countryside, it retains a compact market square, a historic parish church and a mix of 17th–19th century stone and brick buildings that reflect its origins as a local coaching and trading centre.
Today Southam functions as a lively community hub with independent shops, pubs, sports clubs and regular markets and events; good road links to the M40 have made it popular with commuters and light industry. The town is also close to the automotive and engineering cluster around Gaydon, giving a contemporary economic edge to a place with deep local roots.
