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.
