Major's Green is a small, semi-rural village on the edge of the West Midlands, sitting near the Worcestershire border and often associated with nearby Bromsgrove while administratively falling within the Metropolitan Borough of Solihull. It keeps a tucked‑away, greenbelt character of fields and small woodlands, with a mix of older cottages and more modern housing that attracts commuters who work in Birmingham but prefer a village setting.
The community retains its rural roots in local clubs and parish activity and feels distinctly different from the nearby suburbs, yet benefits from good road and rail links into the city and neighbouring towns; historically it grew from smallholdings and lanes rather than as an industrial settlement, which shapes its quieter, village atmosphere today.
