Map of the UK

Ashton under Hill sits in the district of Wychavon in Worcestershire, tucked against the western slopes of Bredon Hill and on the edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Its elevated position affords broad views across the Vale of Evesham and makes it a handy base for walkers and cyclists exploring the surrounding ridges and lanes.

Traditionally an agricultural community - orchards and arable farms remain a common sight - the village now combines farming families with commuters to nearby market towns. A compact historic core with a parish church, traditional cottages and a village hall underpins an active social life of fetes, clubs and local events that sustains a strong village identity.
