Leigh is a small spread out parish between Malvern and Worcester, with just a few hundred inhabitants. The main road runs down to a brook with an ancient church and barn. Leigh, like many local villages, declined in the 20th century, it lost its pub, its police station and its railway station (with the closure of the Bromyard branch line in the 1960's). This was all largely due to the demise of the hop industry in the area.
