Feckenham is a village and civil parish in the borough of Redditch, Worcestershire, England, set in rolling farmland close to the county boundary with Warwickshire. The landscape still bears traces of the medieval royal Feckenham Forest in the form of veteran hedgerows, pockets of ancient woodland and old boundary stones, giving the area a distinctly rural and historic feel.
Historically a forest parish with a medieval church and scattered timber-framed buildings, the community today combines farming and small local businesses with a number of residents who commute to Redditch or Birmingham. Village life centres on a pub, village hall and local events, and the lanes and woods around the village are popular with walkers and people interested in local history.
