About

Drakes Broughton & Norton is a civil parish in the Wychavon district of Worcestershire. The two settlements sit close together and share a village hall, parish church and a primary school, with small shops and a pub serving local needs. Community groups run sports on the playing field, a monthly market and events at the hall, and local volunteer groups look after footpaths and green spaces. Housing is a mix of older cottages and modern estates; lanes link the village to surrounding farms and small holdings.
The surrounding landscape is farmland, with arable fields, hedgerows and a network of public footpaths that provide direct access to the countryside. The place-name elements are telling: "Broughton" refers to a brook that crosses the settlement and "Drakes" preserves a family name, while "Norton" records its origin as the north settlement in a medieval parish. Practical services include village rooms and community-run shops or deliveries that sustain village life. The parish offers a quiet base for everyday rural living and for walking the immediate countryside.
