Hopwood, Worcestershire

Hopwood is a small settlement in Worcestershire, located south of Birmingham, England.

Hopwood almost certainly owes its existence to the Birmingham and Worcester Canal which runs through it; the settlement is developed around 'The Hopwood Inn', which would have been a stopping point for users of the canal.

Today the most prominent modern feature is Hopwood Park Services, a motorway service station situated on the M42 motorway.

Places nearby include: Barnt Green, Alvechurch, Bittell Reservoir and Longbridge.
