Tetbury Upton is a small village in Gloucestershire.

The wider parish extends in an arc around the north, west and south of the town of Tetbury, and includes not only the village of Tetbury Upton itself but also the village of Doughton on the A433 road. Upton and Doughton were historically tythings in the ancient parish of Tetbury,[1]

By 1901, Tetbury Upton's total population reached 905, but by 2011 the population had declined to 309.

Upton House is a Neoclassical country house built in 1752, whose design is usually attributed to William Halfpenny, of Bristol. The parish also includes Highgrove House near Doughton.
