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 in England but formerly located in Warwickshire. It has been scheduled as an ancient monument.[1]
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.
According to Historic England "Documentary evidence indicates that the village became ruinous at the end of the 15th century".[1] Another nearby was Lower Ditchford, while Ditchford Frary is largely deserted.[2]
