Birlingham is a small riverside village in the district of Wychavon, in Worcestershire, England, sitting on the low-lying banks of the River Avon opposite Pershore and a short distance from Evesham. Its setting on the floodplain gives it a patchwork of meadows, willow and alder-lined channels and an atmosphere much enjoyed by walkers, birdwatchers and anglers.
Locally the economy still leans on agriculture and market gardening characteristic of the Vale of Evesham, while many residents commute to nearby towns; the village retains a strong community feel centred on the church, village hall and seasonal events. Historic lanes, traditional cottages and the recurring risk of winter floods all contribute to a distinctive rural character that balances quiet country life with easy access to larger market towns.
