Catshill is a sizeable village and suburb of Bromsgrove in north Worcestershire, England, lying a short drive from the town centre and within easy commuting distance of Birmingham and the West Midlands. It combines Victorian terraces and later suburban housing and benefits from good road and rail links, which have made it a popular base for people working in the nearby urban centres.
Historically a rural settlement that expanded through the 19th and 20th centuries with small-scale industry and local services, Catshill today has a strong community feel centred on shops, pubs, schools and sports clubs, with easy access to surrounding countryside and the Lickey Hills for outdoor recreation. Its mix of local heritage and commuter convenience gives the village a distinctly suburban-but-rural character.
