Witherington is a small settlement in Wiltshire, England, in the extreme south-east of the county, a tithing of the civil parish of Downton.

Although surveyed in the Domesday Book in the 11th century, it is now little more than one farm. The farmhouse, built about 1700, is a Grade II listed building.[1][2]
