Cleeve Prior is a small village and civil parish in the district of Wychavon in Worcestershire, England, sitting a few miles north‑east of Evesham on the low floodplain of the River Avon in the Vale of Evesham. The setting is characteristically rural - river meadows, lanes and a handful of timber‑framed and stone houses give it a tranquil, unhurried feel and make it popular for country walks and wildlife watching.
Historically the “Prior” in the name reflects old ecclesiastical links and the village retains a compact, historic core with a parish church and village amenities that speak to a long agricultural past. Today the local economy is still shaped by market‑gardening and fruit and vegetable production typical of the Vale, while a small, active community organises local events and looks after hedgerows, meadows and the river corridor that define the place.
