Map of the UK

Barningham is a small, rural village and civil parish in West Suffolk, Suffolk, England, set in the rolling arable landscape typical of the county. The local economy remains largely agricultural, with many residents commuting to nearby market towns; quiet lanes, hedgerows and patchwork fields give it a strongly rural character.

The village retains historic features - a medieval parish church and a number of traditional flint and timber-framed cottages - and a modest community life centred on a village hall and occasional local events. Its peaceful setting makes it attractive to walkers and birdwatchers, and the survival of old hedgerows and lanes gives a strong sense of Suffolk’s agricultural past.
