Birchall is a small rural settlement in the district of Staffordshire Moorlands in Staffordshire, England. It lies on the fringes of the upland countryside that leads towards the Peak District National Park, with rolling pasture, stone-built cottages and quiet lanes; the market town of Leek is the nearest centre for shops and services.
Historically the locality has been shaped by agriculture and estate land use, and that farming heritage still defines much of the landscape while modest countryside tourism and commuter living add to the local economy. Community life tends to revolve around neighbouring villages and parish activities, and the area is appreciated for its rural tranquillity and access to nearby walking country and local historic features.
