Oldberrow
Oldberrow is a village in the Stratford on Avon District of Warwickshire, England. The parish was part of Worcestershire until 1896, when it was transferred to Warwickshire, into which county it penetrated, between Morton Bagot and Ullenhall, as a narrow strip some long by about ½ mile wide. The land slopes from at Oldberrow Hill in the north-west to about in the south-east. There is no village, but the church, rectory, and the Court lie at the crossing of four small roads.〔A History of the County of Warwick: Volume 3: Barlichway hundred (1945)〕() It is now part of the parish of Morton Bagot, Oldberrow and Spernall which in 2001 had a population of 153.
