Badge Court is an estate in Worcestershire, England. Originally known as Batchcott, the home's most famous occupant was Helena Wintour, daughter of Gunpowder Plot conspirator Robert Wintour. The house was originally occupied by "an Earl of Shrewsbury". It is two stories tall, and is built of brick and wood with a tiled roof. The original design incorporated a moat, but this has now been filled in; other modern additions include a plaster front. The interior of the house features 16th-century carved oak panelling, extending from the entranceway through much of the house. The Wintour family coat of arms is still visible on the main hall ceiling and carved on an oak panel in the dining room. Other notable features include patterned tiles which ornament the fireplace in the master bedroom. Many of the tiles depict the coat of arms of the Wintours and various noble families. Among them is a tile with the name "Sir John Talbot", which likely refers to Helena Wintour's grandfather.Helena Wintour, a Catholic, sheltered priests and held Mass at Badge Court. She embroidered the Wintour Vestments for use by the priests during their tenure at Badge Court. One lot of these richly decorated garments is now held by Stonyhurst College; the other descended through the family and are in a private collection near Tewkesbury. They have been extensively studied by Dr. Sophie Holroyd

Blakedown is a village in the Wyre Forest District lying along the A456 in the north of the county of Worcestershire, England. Following enclosures and the arrival of the railway, it developed both agriculturally and industrially during the 19th century. Due to its transport links, it now serves mainly as a dormitory for the neighbouring town of Kidderminster and for the cities of Birmingham and Worcester.

Blakedown railway station serves the English village of Blakedown, Worcestershire. It was opened (as Churchill station) in 1852, later becoming known for a time as Churchill & Blakedown after the two villages became a single parish. The station is unstaffed, with only a basic shelter on each platform. There is a level crossing immediately to the west of the platforms, and in the absence of a footbridge or subway this is also the only method for passengers to cross the tracks. The platforms were lengthened in the 1990s to allow longer trains to call (see image - the hollow space and the white fence mark the extension). This is because Blakedown is within the Birmingham commuter band and over the twenty years between 1998 - 2018 usage of the station has increased by 147%. Currently there is a proposal to develop a car park on an adjacent field site to cater for further anticipated growth.Since August 2012 the signalling system has been altered, with the former signal box having been closed and control of the nearby crossing and signals transferred to the West Midlands SCC at Saltley. The old signal box was then acquired by the Churchill and Blakedown Historical Society for their headquarters and was shifted across the road to a site adjoining the station in 2016.
