Geography It occupies the top of the gentle, mainly green, vale of the Elmbridge Brook which feeds south a few miles into Droitwich Spa, there flowing into the short River Salwarpe, in navigability superseded by the parallel Droitwich Canal, both left-bank tributaries of the Severn. The ecclesiastical parish has essentially the same boundaries.

Etymology The name refers to a bridge over the River Mole, which was originally called the River Emel or Amele, a word possibly meaning 'misty' and later had the alternate form Emlyn; the bridge may have been between Hersham and Esher and specifically close to the crossing of today's A244 roa ...
