Kemerton is a small village and civil parish in the Wychavon district of Worcestershire, England, lying on the lower slopes of Bredon Hill close to the border with Gloucestershire and the Vale of Evesham. Its position on the northern edge of the Cotswolds gives the area rolling limestone countryside, traditional hedgerows and good views across the surrounding agricultural plain.
Although distinctly rural - with farming still important - the village is best known for the historic estate of Kemerton Court and for the rich wildlife of its ancient meadows and limestone grassland, much valued by conservation groups; nearby earthworks and old parish buildings hint at a long local history. Community life is quiet and village-centred, with a mix of long-standing residents and people who commute to larger towns, and a strong sense of place rooted in landscape and heritage.
