Spetchley is a very small, quiet parish in the district of Wychavon, in the county of Worcestershire, England, lying just to the east of the city of Worcester. The area is mainly agricultural with scattered houses and farmsteads, and its rural character is shaped by parkland, lanes and easy road links that make it within commuting reach of nearby towns.
The parish is best known for the historic country estate centred on Spetchley Park Gardens and Spetchley Hall, whose formal terraces, walks and famous spring bulbs attract visitors on open days and occasional events; this gives a gentle cultural and economic boost to an otherwise agricultural community and provides the principal focus for local history and social activity.
