Welcome to Barnt Green Parish Council

The Parish is bounded on its north-west side by the wooded Lickey Hills and to the east by the Bittell Reservoirs.

Junction 2 of the M42 motorway is 3 miles to the east and Junction 4 of the M5 motorway is 4 miles to the west. To the south of the village is mixed-farm land.

The railway station which is in the heart of the village provides the residents of the Parish with a frequent train service to Birmingham (12 miles) and Redditch (8 miles), but only a very limited service at the moment to Worcester (20 miles). There is a bus service to Birmingham and Bromsgrove, and a sporadic service to Alvechurch and Redditch.
There are 3 churches in the village. St Andrew’s parish church has a thriving youth club complemented by guide, scout, brownie, and cub troops. The Baptist Church, The Friends Meeting House and the Parish Church have large meeting halls which are well used by all the village organizations. There are nurseries and play groups for the younger children, and a very good first school.
