Hanley Castle is a small village and civil parish in the Malvern Hills district of Worcestershire, England. It takes its name from a medieval castle - now largely earthworks - and sits on the edge of the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, so the surrounding landscape is popular with walkers and offers wide rural views.
The community is largely agricultural with a strong village feel, centred on its church, pub and local events, and it punches above its weight culturally through the well-regarded Hanley Castle High School which serves a wider rural area. Many residents commute to nearby towns such as Malvern or Worcester, making it a quiet but connected part of Worcestershire's countryside.
