Evenlode is a village and civil parish (ONS Code 23UC051) in the Cotswold District of eastern Gloucestershire in England.[2]

Evenlode is bordered by the Gloucestershire parishes of Moreton-in-Marsh to the northwest, Longborough and Donnington to the west, Broadwell to the southwest, and Adlestrop to the southeast;[3] and by the Oxfordshire parish of Chastleton to the east.[4]

At Evenlode's northern tip is the Four shire stone, whose name predates the parish's 1931 transfer from Worcestershire; here at a point between Moreton-in-Marsh and Chastleton are the Warwickshire parishes of Little Compton and Great Wolford,[5] as well as Batsford in Gloucestershire.[3] At its southern tip, between Broadwell and Adlestrop, Evenlode meets the parish of Oddington at a point.[3]
