Marsh Green was founded in 1554 under its current name. The large triangular green extends from the village at the western end away from any houses to the east. The B2028 (Marsh Green Road) follows the southern side. This view looks along the quieter road which follows the other two sides, close to the church. Marsh Green claims the last bare-knuckle boxing fight in England, in 1886.
