Upton Cressett is a village and civil parish in the English county of Shropshire. Population details for the 2011 census are shown under Aston Eyre parish.
The village is notable as the location of three Grade I listed buildings, St Michael's church[1] Upton Cressett Hall[2] and the Gatehouse of the Hall.[3]
St Michael's church is now redundant and in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. The Gatehouse of the hall has been renovated as a luxury country house hotel.
