Wotherton is a hamlet in west Shropshire, close to the Welsh border.

It is in the civil parish of Chirbury with Brompton.

Its name, mentioned as a manor in Domesday means, roughly, "settlement at a woodland ford"; the road through the village crosses a small stream.

[1] The Wotherton Barytes Mine operated here until 1911.
