Barnt Green is a well-heeled village on the edge of the district of Bromsgrove in Worcestershire, England, sitting about ten miles south of Birmingham. It grew up in the 19th century around the railway and still benefits from a station with regular services into the city, which helped shape its mix of large Victorian and Edwardian homes, independent shops, village pubs and good local schools that make it popular with commuters.
The village sits close to the wooded slopes of the Lickey Hills, giving quick access to extensive walks, viewpoints and outdoor pursuits; locally there are active golf and cricket clubs and a strong community feel from village associations and events. Though small, Barnt Green balances its commuter role with attractive green spaces and a sense of local history tied to the rail and country estates of Worcestershire.
