Grimley is a small rural parish in the Malvern Hills district of Worcestershire, England, set close to the banks of the River Severn and within easy driving distance of Worcester. The landscape is a mix of river meadows and working farmland, with quiet lanes and good spots for walking and birdwatching along the Severn's floodplain.
Locally the settlement retains a distinctly village character with a historic church of medieval origin, a handful of listed buildings and an active parish life centred on a village hall and occasional community events. The economy is mainly agricultural with many residents commuting to nearby towns, and the area is appreciated for its peaceful setting and traditional Worcestershire architecture.
