The civil parish of Farewell and Chorley sits a few miles west of Lichfield in Staffordshire, England, and comprises the small settlements of Farewell and Chorley. It is a compact, rural area within the Lichfield district, characterised by farmland, hedgerows and a scattering of historic houses rather than a single large village centre.
Locally the parish is noted for its quiet, agricultural character and longstanding community ties: lanes, footpaths and bridleways are popular with walkers and horse riders, and a number of older buildings hint at medieval and post‑medieval origins. The economy remains largely rural with small farms and local enterprises, while many residents travel to nearby towns for work, so the area combines traditional countryside life with easy access to services in Lichfield.
