Dialling code: 01608 (Chipping Norton)

Whichford is a small village and civil parish in the district of Stratford-on-Avon, in south Warwickshire, sitting close to the border with Oxfordshire and the gentle, rolling countryside at the edge of the Cotswolds. The settlement has a compact core of historic stone cottages and farmsteads and a parish church with medieval origins, reflecting a long rural history that is still visible in field patterns and lanes.

Farming continues to shape the local economy, though many residents commute to nearby market towns such as Shipston-on-Stour, Stratford-upon-Avon and Banbury. Community life is quiet and village-focused, with local events and a village hall providing the social hub, and a scattering of small craft and rural businesses contributing to the parish's character.
