Hadzor is part of the Bowbrook Group of Parishes, which includes the neighbouring villages of Sale Green, Oddingley and Hanbury and nearby Huddington, Crowle, Tibberton and Himbleton.

Frances Amelia (née Arthur), wife of Theodore Howard Galton, converted to Catholicism in 1862, followed a few months later by her husband.

They opened a Catholic chapel in the house and arranged for Mass to be celebrated by a Passionist priest from Broadway.

In 2003, a number of new houses were built on the borders of the village by developer Neil Grinnal.

A long campaign was led against this development under the banner 'keep Hadzor special', but failed to prevent around 70 houses being built.
