Rodborough is a large village and civil parish in the district of Stroud, Gloucestershire, in South West England.

Most of the common land was donated to the National Trust in 1937 by Thomas Bainbrigge Fletcher (1878–1950), a naval officer and entomologist.

The local newspaper is the Stroud News & Journal and the parish council also produces a quarterly newsletter called The Commoner.

[11] Sir John Dean Paul, 1st Baronet (1775–1852), of Rodborough, was a landowner, banker, and painter.

He designed the uncompleted Woodchester Mansion and a number of houses and Roman Catholic churches and convents, particularly in Gloucestershire and South Wales.
