Overton is a hamlet in the civil parish of Arlingham, in the Stroud district, in the county of Gloucestershire, England. The name, first recorded in 1584, is of Old English origin and means "upper farmstead".[1] Barrow Hill (62m), above the hamlet, is the highest point on the Arlingham peninsula and offers good views across the Severn to the Forest of Dean.

Wick Court is a Grade II* listed building. It is an "almost unaltered example of an Elizabethan house said to have been used by the Lords Berkeley when catching salmon, and even visited by Queen Elizabeth."[2]
