Birtsmorton is a village and civil parish in the Malvern Hills of Worcestershire, England, which at the 2021 census had a population of 257.[1] It is in the south-west of the county, not far from the borders with Herefordshire and Gloucestershire.

History

See also: History of Worcestershire

The church is dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul and dates from the 14th century.[2] There is a large manor house, Birtsmorton Court, which is used today as a wedding venue.[3] It was the home for many centuries of the Nanfan family, some of whose tombs are in the church.

In 1703, the Rev. Samuel Juice, a former rector, endowed a village school in Rye Street. [4]

Birtsmorton was the birthplace of the chairmaker Philip Clissett who lived in the parish from his birth in 1817 until about 1842.[5]

Toponymy

The village belonged to the Le Bret family from the 12th century onwards. Bret means Breton. The same family name is associated with Westonbirt House near Tetbury, Gloucestershire.[6]
