Clent

Clent is a village and civil parish in the Bromsgrove District of Worcestershire, England, southwest of Birmingham and close to the edge of the West Midlands conurbation.

Because of the hilly topography of the parish the village consists of several distinct hamlets.

These are Upper Clent (Clatterbach and the area around the parish church of St. Leonard), Lower Clent, Holy Cross, Adams Hill and Walton Pool.

Part of the parish is an area of agricultural lowland, but to the northwest the ground rises forming the Clent Hills (now owned by the National Trust), which is a popular destination for walkers.

Climate in this area has mild differences between highs and lows, and there is adequate rainfall year-round.

The four stones or "Ossian's Tomb" on the top of the Clent Hills were follies erected by George Lyttelton, 1st Baron Lyttelton
