Shipston on Stour Rural District was in Worcestershire until 1931. Following that date it was in Warwickshire. The town of Shipston on Stour is east of Evesham and was in a "detached part" of Worcestershire. Gloucestershire covered some of the area in the direct line between Evesham and Shipston on Stour.

the following text is based on an article in Wikipedia

The district covered an area around the town of Shipston on Stour. Originally it was a detached part of Worcestershire, but in 1931 it was transferred to the jurisdiction of Warwickshire, and was expanded by the abolition of Brailes Rural District.

The district was abolished in 1974 under the Local Government Act 1972 and now forms part of the Stratford on Avon District in Warwickshire.
