About

Fernhill Heath and Ombersley sit in the Wychavon district of Worcestershire and together form a patchwork of village settlements, lanes and farmland. Fernhill Heath centres on a high street with a primary school, village hall and small shops, and community sport is organised around local football and cricket sides. The built edge meets open fields and allotments, with occasional hedgerows and ponds that mark older parish boundaries. Day-to-day life revolves around parish events, school calendars and the network of lanes that link the hamlets and farms.

Ombersley is set around a broad village green overlooked by the parish church and a late Georgian country house with adjoining parkland. The River Salwarpe crosses the parish and has shaped small-scale mill and field patterns for centuries. Narrow lanes run from the green into a mix of pasture and arable land, and village facilities include a pub, a primary school and community clubs that use the green for cricket and fairs. The area retains a clear pattern of scattered farmsteads, village amenities and working countryside within Wychavon.
