The civil parish of Shenstone sits in the district of Lichfield, Staffordshire, on the rural fringe of the West Midlands conurbation and within easy commuting distance of Birmingham. The parish keeps a semi-rural character of villages, farmland and hedgerows clustered around a compact village centre, and benefits from good rail links via Shenstone railway station on the Cross‑City line to Birmingham and Lichfield.
