The village of Ombersley is in the Wychavon District Council area of Worcestershire about 5 miles north of Worcester on the main A449 road to Kidderminster.

According to an article on the village, published in May 2006 in The Birmingham Post, the first known reference to the village was the granting of a Charter to the village by Abbot Ecgwine, later Saint Ecgwine, of Evesham Abbey in 706 AD.
