Moving to or from Studley? Let M&G Do the Heavy Lifting (Before the A435 Tests Your Patience Yet Again)

Welcome to Studley — Warwickshire’s largest village, famous for its needle‑making past and its knack for feeling both rural and well‑connected. With around 6,000 residents, a High Street full of independents, and Stratford‑upon‑Avon just down the road, Studley mixes heritage with everyday convenience.

Schools That Actually Impress

Studley High School is consistently praised, while nearby primaries like Studley St Mary’s and All Saints C of E keep families happy. Translation: your kids will get a solid education and you’ll get used to hearing about Shakespeare trips before they’ve even tackled Macbeth in class.

Economy With a Sharp Edge

Studley once produced more needles than anywhere else in the world — and while the factories have gone, the legacy remains. Today, the local economy blends small businesses, retail, and commuting links to Birmingham and Stratford. Add in logistics along the A435 corridor, and Studley’s still got plenty of bite.

Things to Do (Besides Dodging the A435 Traffic)

  • Forge Mill Needle Museum (Redditch, nearby) – a nod to Studley’s industrial past.

  • Studley Castle – now a hotel, but still the village’s most eye‑catching landmark.

  • Local favourites – The Bell for a pint, countryside walks along the Arden Way, and Stratford‑upon‑Avon for theatre and riverside charm.

Moving Services That Keep It Simple

At M&G, we can’t stop the A435 from backing up at rush hour, but we can make moving day a whole lot easier:

  • Full packing services

  • Secure, insured storage (ideal if your chain moves slower than the queue at the chippy on a Friday night)

  • Local, national, European & overseas moves (because sometimes Studley is just the start of the adventure)
