==History==
Poulton was listed as ''Poltone'' in the ''Domesday Book'' of 1086.〔 Historically, the village was part of the county of Wiltshire and for centuries was—physically detached from Wiltshire—an enclave of Gloucestershire. In 1844, under the Counties (Detached Parts) Act, Poulton became part of Gloucestershire.〔
There was a parish church at Poulton by at least 1337, when the lord of the manor, Sir Thomas Seymour, endowed it with a chantry.〔 In 1348, Seymour built what became the Priory of St Mary.〔 From 1539, with the Dissolution of the Monasteries, the priory was used as the Poulton's parish church. It was demolished in 1873.〔 The current parish church, dedicated to St Michael and All Angels, was built in 1873 by William Butterfield.〔
