Rushwick is a small rural village and civil parish in the Malvern Hills district of Worcestershire, England, situated a few miles west of Worcester. It sits amid gently rolling farmland and hedgerow country rather than on the high ridges of the Malvern Hills themselves, making it typical of Worcestershire countryside with lanes, scattered cottages and farmsteads and easy road access to nearby towns.
Historically an agricultural community, Rushwick today mixes traditional rural life with commuters who travel into Worcester and beyond; local character is provided by village activities, community groups and a handful of small businesses rather than larger industry. Its quiet lanes and proximity to open countryside make it popular for walkers and families seeking a quieter base while remaining within easy reach of regional services and amenities.
