Whitstone was an ancient hundred of Gloucestershire, England. From the 13th century it comprised two adjacent divisions, which included the ancient parishes of:

Lower Division
  • Eastington
  • Frampton-on-Severn
  • Frocester
  • King's Stanley
  • Leonard Stanley
  • Stonehouse
  • Wheatenhurst (now Whitminster)
Upper Division
  • Fretherne
  • Hardwicke
  • Haresfield
  • Longney
  • Moreton Valence
  • Randwick
  • Saul
  • Standish
  • Quedgeley (part)

The hundred existed at the time of the Domesday Book in 1086, but covering a smaller area. By 1220 the adjacent Blacklow hundred had been absorbed. Blachelaue in the Domesday Book contained the parishes of Alkerton (now Eastington), Frampton (-on-Severn), Frocester, (Kings) Stanley, (Leonard) Stanley, Stonehouse, Wheatenhurst, and Fretherne.[1]

The ancient meeting place of the hundred was probably at Whitestones Field in the parish of Hardwicke, although meetings were later held at Quedgeley, Stonehouse, Wheatenhurst and Frampton.[2]
