​Hanwood is a large village in Shropshire, England.
It is located 3 miles (4.8 km) SW of Shrewsbury town centre, on the A488 road. The A5 is only a mile away. The Cambrian Line runs through the village but there is no longer a railway station here. It was closed in 1964, as a result of the Beeching Axe.[2] The nearest working passenger station is at Shrewsbury.
The Rea Brook flows through the village and the village is laid along the floor of a small valley.
The village forms the main of the civil parish of Great Hanwood.
