About

Wolverley, Cookley and Blakedown form a parish in Wyre Forest district, Worcestershire, made up of villages, smaller hamlets and surrounding farmland. The area is crossed by lanes and field boundaries, with pockets of woodland and streams threaded through farmed land. Housing ranges from older terraces and cottages to later ribbon development along the main roads. Local activity mixes small businesses and light industry on the parish edge with farms and residential streets; parish council minutes and village halls provide focal points for community affairs.

Blakedown is served by a local railway station on the Snow Hill line, giving a direct link towards Birmingham and Kidderminster and shaping the village layout around the green and station approach. Several clusters of 19th-century brick terraces sit close to that line, while Wolverley and Cookley retain scattered farmsteads and greens. Rights of way and short public paths connect the settlements, and field margins, hedgerows and small streams are a recurring part of the local scene.
