Hopton Castle is a small village and civil parish in south Shropshire, England.

The village grew up near the keep of Hopton Castle, which was opened as a visitor attraction in 2011. Nearby is the hamlet of Hopton Heath, with its railway station on the Heart of Wales Line. Also nearby are the villages of Bedstone, Bucknell and Clungunford.

Because of the small population of the parish, instead of a parish council it has a parish meeting.^[1]

The parish church of St Mary is a Grade II listed building.^[2]
