Barnardiston is a small, rural settlement in West Suffolk, Suffolk, England, set among gentle arable farmland and quiet lanes. It has historic roots going back to the medieval period and retains a compact village character, with a handful of older houses and a traditional church; the local economy is still largely agricultural, with many residents commuting to nearby market towns.
