Overview

In Medieval times Feckenham was the centre of the Royal Hunting Forest of Feckenham and was visited by most English Kings. It later became a needle making location with a former needle mill still opposite the village square.
Today it is a charming village packed with lovely buildings. The surrounding countryside has numerous brooks and meadows with a couple of low hills to climb enabling us views of the delightful landscape.
