Whitton is a hamlet and civil parish in Shropshire, England.

It is situated east of Caynham and the market town of Ludlow is 5.2 miles (8.4 km) away. There is a parish church in the hamlet.

Whitton Court is a grade I listed manor house dating from 1611, previously the home of Lord Mayor of London Sebastian Harvey, and members of the Charlton family.
