In 2011 the parish had a population of 180. [3] The parish touches Tibberton, Martin Hussingtree, Salwarpe, Oddingley, Warndon and North Claines. [4]
There are 15 listed buildings in Hindlip. [5] Hindlip Hall, a stately home originally built in 1563, rebuilt in 1820 following its destruction by fire is the headquarters of the West Mercia Police. [6] St James's Church is a 15th-century parish church [7] which is no longer supported by the Church of England (since 1997), but is now the church for the constabulary. [8]
The name "Hindlip" means 'Hind leap'. [9] Hindlip was recorded in the Domesday Book as Hindelep. [10] Hindlip was "Hindehlep" in the 10th century, "Hundeslep" in the 12th century, "Hindelupe" in the 13h century and Henlipp in the 16th century. [11] On the 22nd of December 1886 Upper and Lower Smite Houses, a part of Warndon parish was transferred to the parish. The transferred area contained 5 houses in 1891. On the 1st of April 1952 18 acres were transferred to the parish from North Claines and 5 acres were transferred to Warndon. [12] The parish was historically in the Oswaldslow hundred. [13] Hindlip was possibly a deserted medieval village. [14]
