Catshill and North Marlbrook sits just north of Bromsgrove in Worcestershire, England, occupying a semi-rural band of village streets, farmland and small woods. The area has convenient road links into Birmingham and Worcester, and combines post‑war and more recent housing with older brick and stone cottages that hint at its once-thriving local trades.
Historically the locality shared in the small‑scale metalworking and cottage industries typical of the Bromsgrove hinterland; today it’s largely a commuter and local community with independent shops, pubs, schools and active parish groups. Greenbelt farmland, hedgerows and footpaths give it a distinctly rural feel despite close links to nearby towns, and a strong sense of neighbourhood is maintained through local events and the parish council.
