About

Barningham ward encompasses a sparsely populated rural area in the far northwest of West Suffolk, bordering both Norfolk and Cambridgeshire. Its landscape is characterised by gently rolling farmland, scattered woodland, and the shallow valleys of the Little Ouse and Black Bourn river systems. The settlement pattern is one of small, quiet villages and hamlets, including the namesake Barningham, alongside Coney Weston, Market Weston, and Thelnetham.

The area is part of the Breckland fringe, with soil types influencing its agricultural use. A notable feature is the restored windmill at Thelnetham, which stands as a landmark in the open countryside. The ward contains several protected conservation areas and sites of scientific interest, with public rights of way traversing the farmland and river valleys, defining its quiet, agricultural character.
