About
Churchill is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Churchill and Blakedown, in the Wyre Forest district of Worcestershire, England. It is near to Kidderminster and is the location of one of the few surviving water-powered plating forges in the United Kingdom - Churchill Forge Mill. In 1931 the parish had a population of 201. On 1 April 1933 the parish was abolished to form "Churchill and Blakedown". The name Churchill derives from the Primitive Welsh crūg meaning 'hill/tumulus', and the Old English hyll, also meaning 'hill'. The first element was confused with the Old English cirice meaning 'church'.
