Hopwas is a small riverside village in the district of Lichfield, Staffordshire, England, sitting beside the River Tame and crossed by the Coventry Canal. Its towpaths and waterside stretch make it a quiet spot for walkers and boaters, and the village feels distinctly rural despite being a short drive from the cathedral city of Lichfield and the market town of Tamworth.
Historically the locality grew up around agriculture and the canal trade, and today it combines that heritage with a largely residential character, popular with commuters to Birmingham and nearby centres. The mix of countryside access, canal-side features and proximity to larger towns gives Hopwas a quietly attractive social and recreational life rather than a busy commercial centre.
