Fazeley is a small town and civil parish on the edge of the Lichfield district in Staffordshire, England, lying close to the borough of Tamworth and within the wider Birmingham commuter area. The settlement grew up around its waterways, notably the meeting of the Coventry Canal at Fazeley Junction and the nearby River Tame, and still shows an industrial past in converted mills, canal-side warehouses and working wharves.
Today Fazeley mixes residential neighbourhoods with small-scale industry and local shops; towpaths, waterside pubs and boat traffic make it popular with walkers and boaters and a number of historic buildings have found new life as housing or light commercial uses. Community life is articulated through parish amenities, clubs and occasional local events, while good road and rail links mean many residents commute to nearby towns and cities for work.
