Barnby is a village and civil parish in the East Suffolk district of the English county of Suffolk.[2] The village is 5 miles (8.0 km) west of Lowestoft and 3 miles (4.8 km) east of Beccles in the north of the county. It is effectively merged with the village of North Cove which constitutes a separate parish.[3]
At the 2011 United Kingdom census the population of the parish was 479.[1] This had fallen slightly from a mid-2005 estimated population of 510.[a][1][4] Other than North Cove, it is bordered by Carlton Colville to the east, Mutford to the south, and to the north the Norfolk parish of Burgh St Peter across the river.[1]
The northern border of the parish is marked by the River Waveney and the northern area lies within The Broads National Park.[3] The village lies on the A146 road running between Norwich and Lowestoft. This bypasses the built up area on a series of bends known locally as the "Barnby bends".[3] The Ipswich to Lowestoft railway line runs through the north of the parish, with the nearest stations at Oulton Broad South and Beccles.
