Didmarton is a village and civil parish in Gloucestershire, England. It lies in the Cotswold District. Since 25 March 1883, the civil parish has included the former parish of Oldbury-on-the-Hill.〔 ==History== A military survey of Didmarton in 1522 shows that it was then a very small village, overshadowed by the neighbouring Oldbury-on-the-Hill.〔 In the 16th century, the manor of Didmarton was owned by the Seacole family. In 1571, Simon Codrington married Agnes, daughter and co-heiress of Richard Seacole, and the estate thus passed to their son Robert Codrington.〔(Robert Codrington ) at thepeerage.com (accessed 13 April 2008)〕 It was sold to Charles Somerset, 4th Duke of Beaufort, in about 1750, but has had a succession of other owners since then. Together with Oldbury, the parish was subject to enclosure in 1829.〔''AN ACT for inclosing Lands in the Manors and Parishes of Didmarton and Oldbury-on-the-Hill'' (HMSO, 1829, 18pp.)〕〔(Didmarton and Oldbury on the Hill enclosure ) at nationalarchives.gov.uk (accessed 13 April 2008)〕 According to ''The National Gazetteer of Great Britain and Ireland'' (1868):〔Hamilton, N.
