Great Comberton

Great Comberton is a village in Worcestershire, England, United Kingdom.

Location
Great Comberton village is located 3 kilometres or two-and-a-half miles south of Pershore, and lies partly on the steep northern slope of Bredon Hill and partly at its foot, on the left bank of the Avon, which, with one of its tributaries, forms the greater part of the western boundary. The southernmost boundary is with the Worcestershire parish of Kemerton, meeting at the summit of the Bredon Hill escarpment. The Mary Brook, another tributary of the Avon, forms Great Comberton's Northern boundary, at the eastern end of which is Mary Brook Bridge. On its southern boundary the parish reaches a height of about 294 m AOD on the North facing slope of Bredon Hill. Part of the village lies within the Cotswold AONB due to Bredon Hill's landscape importance.
