Barnwood, in Gloucestershire, England is situated on the old Roman road that connects the City of Gloucester with Hucclecote, Brockworth and Cirencester. Barnwood was originally a small village and St. Lawrence Church which is situated about two miles east of the city center of Gloucester, is a traditional Church of England parish stone building known for the The Barnwood Guild of Church Bellringers which was inaugurated in 1952. However, bell ringing has a long history in the Gloucester area and Barnwood had long been a part of it when its activities were disrupted by World War II.

Further up the same Roman road is the village of Hucclecote which is next in line to Brockworth where many famous aircraft have been produced in the past.
