The village of Blaisdon is on the fertile lands at the edge of the river severn flood plain. Before the Norman Invasionit was known as Blethes Dene, meaning 'wooded place'. It once contained many orchards growing the 'Blaisdon Plum', a red plum developed by John Dowding of Tanhouse Farm in the late 19th century and used in jam making.

The early houses were timber framed, built with Forest Oak, but a disastrous fire on 7th July 1699 destroyed most of the village. Subsequent rebuilding was in stone or brick, but some timber framed buildings remain. At the stud farm Peter Stubbs the predominate land owner (1890 -1906) bred Blaisdon Conqueror - the worlds largest shire horse, whose bones lie in the British Museum.
