The civil parish of Moreton Corbet and Lee Brockhurst sits in north Shropshire, England, combining the small settlements of Moreton Corbet and Lee Brockhurst. It is a predominantly agricultural area of rolling fields and hedgerows, with a quiet village atmosphere, a handful of local farm businesses and residents who often travel to larger towns for work and services.
The parish is best known for the dramatic ruin of Moreton Corbet Castle, a medieval fortress remodelled as an Elizabethan manor by the Corbet family and left damaged after the Civil War, which now draws walkers and history enthusiasts. Scattered listed buildings, a parish church and a network of country footpaths give the area a strong sense of local history and landscape value typical of rural Shropshire.
