Catherine-de-Barnes is a small village in the Metropolitan Borough of Solihull, in the West Midlands and historically part of Warwickshire. Its name dates back to a medieval landowner and the settlement retains a compact, village feel while sitting close to greenbelt countryside and important transport links like the M42 and Birmingham Airport, making it a convenient commuter spot for nearby Birmingham and Solihull.
The community combines residential streets with some light industrial and warehousing units that take advantage of the transport connections, but local life is still driven by a village hall, community groups and nearby footpaths and open spaces that are popular with walkers and cyclists.
