Rushock is a small, rural parish in the Wyre Forest district of Worcestershire, England, lying a few miles from Kidderminster and Stourport-on-Severn. It is characterised by rolling farmland, hedgerowed lanes and a scattering of cottages and farmsteads rather than a compact village centre, giving it a quiet, pastoral feel.
Historically an agricultural community, Rushock still retains a farming presence while many residents now commute to nearby towns; the built environment includes a number of older houses and a parish church that hint at its long rural history. Social life is typical of small Worcestershire parishes - community-focused and low-key - with easy access to the wider leisure and woodland opportunities in the surrounding district.
