Danzey Green, sometimes known locally as simply Danzey, is a small rural hamlet in Warwickshire, England. It is within the civil parish of Tanworth-in-Arden,[1] the village of which is around one mile to the north-west. Just east of Danzey is the River Alne. It is situated 16.4 miles (26.4 km) south south-east of Birmingham, 13.5 miles (21.7 km) east of Bromsgrove and 12.1 miles (19.5 km) north north-west of Stratford-upon-Avon.
It is served by Danzey railway station on the adjacent North Warwickshire Line.
Danzey Green was once home to a windmill, which was built in 1830, but it stopped working in 1874 after being damaged in a severe storm. In 1969 the windmill was dismantled and then reassembled at the Avoncroft Museum of Historic Buildings in nearby Worcestershire and restored to working order.[2]
