Whiteshill is a village in the Cotswolds, situated to the north of Stroud in Gloucestershire, stretched over the ridge of a hill close by the eastern edge of the Cotswolds. Whiteshill has a population of just over 1,000.
As the name suggests, Whiteshill is far from flat, and some of the houses in Whiteshill have wonderful views of nearby scenery.
The Church of England Church is St Paul's. When the limits of Stroud parish were set in 1304, Whiteshill and Ruscombe formed part of the tithing of Paganhill. They remained part of Stroud until 1894, when the new civil parish of Whiteshill was created.
