Barton-under-Needwood is a large village and civil parish in East Staffordshire, Staffordshire, England, lying a few miles south‑west of Burton upon Trent and to the west of Lichfield. Its name records the village’s historic position beneath the once‑extensive Needwood Forest, and the centre still shows a mix of period cottages, a medieval parish church and surrounding farmland and pockets of woodland that hint at that rural past.
Today Barton-under-Needwood blends village charm with good commuter links, supporting local shops, pubs, schools and active sports and community clubs; the local economy has shifted from traditional agriculture to services, light industry and people travelling to nearby towns for work, while regular village events and societies keep a strong sense of community.
