Upper Ditchford

Upper Ditchford

Upper Ditchford is an abandoned village to the west of the Fosse Way between Moreton-in-Marsh and Stretton on Fosse now in the county of Gloucestershire, England but formerly located in Warwickshire.

It is located approximately a mile north of the hamlet of Aston Magna and 1½ miles to the east of Paxford on the 100m contour line.

This is the site of one of the many villages that were abandoned or removed as part of the 19th century land enclosure acts.
