The civil parish of Astley and Dunley lies in the Malvern Hills district of Worcestershire, England, and is made up of the two small neighbouring villages and surrounding farmland. The area is characteristically rural, with hedgerows, small woodlands and a mix of stone and brick cottages that hint at a long agricultural past and local building traditions.

Locally life centres on village institutions such as the hall and pub and a modest calendar of community events; economically it remains largely agricultural while many residents commute to nearby towns such as Kidderminster and Worcester. Its position gives good access to Worcestershire’s open countryside and walking country, and the parish preserves a quiet, close‑knit social feel with visible layers of local history in its buildings and lanes.
