Water Orton
Water Orton is a village and civil parish in the North Warwickshire borough of Warwickshire in the West Midlands, England near the River Tame. It is located between Castle Bromwich and Coleshill, and borders the West Midlands metropolitan county boundary to the north, west and south. At the 2001 Census, the population was 3,573, falling to 3,444 at the 2011 Census. In the 2021 Census the population slightly rose to 3,487. Etymology Water Orton was first documented in an Assize Roll of 1262 as ''Overton'' which means farm by the bank or edge. This usage continued to be recorded through the 13th and 14th centuries, but the name ''Oreton'' is recorded in the Warwickshire Feet of Fines in 1431.

It is now thought that Water Orton may have been included in the Domesday Book in 1086 as 'Wavre' (Over) with Castle Bromwich. History The o ...
