Uckington is a village west of Cheltenham in Gloucestershire, just escaping the clutches of the town's swollen urban area by a field's breadth. It is on the A4019 running north-west out of Cheltenham to the M6 motorway and the Vale of Gloucester.

The population of the parish taken at the 2011 census was 605.

Not having a church, Uckington is a hamlet in the parish of Elmstone Hardwicke, but is a 'civil parish' in its own right. The two villages share a village hall.

Nearby villages include Elmstone-Hardwicke and Boddington.
