Longdon Marsh is an area of flat land spreading into neighbouring Eldersfield, now mostly drained for agriculture. The Worcestershire Wildlife Trust owns and maintains the Hill Court Farm & The Blacklands flagship nature reserve on an area of former marshland within Longdon and aims to restore it to its former wetland state.[4]
