Shelderton is a hamlet in south Shropshire, England. It is located just southeast of the village of Clungunford and is part of that village's civil parish.[1]

It was a medieval township[2] and belonged to Munslow hundred.[3]

The border with Herefordshire is nearby to the south. The small hamlet of Little Common is near to Shelderton, on the B4367 road, and is connected with Shelderton by a footpath (Grid reference Script error: No such module "Ordnance Survey coordinates".). Also on the B4367, near to where the Leintwardine lane from Shelderton meets the B4367, is a Grade II Listed house called The Lynches (Grid reference Script error: No such module "Ordnance Survey coordinates".).[1][4]

The nearest market towns are Craven Arms and Ludlow.

A Roman road runs through Shelderton, on its way between the Roman fort and settlement at Leintwardine and the city at Wroxeter.

There is a Royal Mail post box in the hamlet.[5]
