About

Blockley ward encompasses a historic village nestled within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The settlement is centered around a spring-fed brook that once powered several silk mills, a key part of its industrial heritage. The landscape is characterised by rolling hills and traditional limestone buildings. The local economy includes small-scale agriculture and residential tourism.

The parish contains the hamlets of Aston Magna and Northwick, adding to its rural character. A notable feature is the presence of two medieval church towers within the village itself, reflecting its past ecclesiastical significance. Public footpaths connect the community to surrounding farmland and woodland. The area maintains a quiet, residential atmosphere distinct from larger Cotswold market towns.
