Harborne, Residential suburb in Birmingham, England

Harborne extends across a verdant area three miles southwest of Birmingham city center, featuring Victorian houses and modern residential developments.

The suburb's first documented mention appears in the Domesday Book of 1086, with its name possibly derived from the term boundary brook.

The St Peter's Church, established during the Anglo-Saxon period, stands at the center of the original Harborne Village settlement.

Multiple bus routes connect Harborne to Birmingham's center, while the former railway line now serves as a nature path for walking and cycling.

The Chad Valley Company, one of Britain's principal toy manufacturers, operated in Harborne for eight decades during the 20th century.
