Earlswood, West Midlands

Earlswood is a small village at the south of the borough of Solihull in England. It straddles the county border of Warwickshire and West Midlands. Its postal town is Solihull, but is administered by Stratford-on-Avon District (Warwickshire - south) and Solihull Metropolitan Council (West Midlands - north).

It is surrounded by farm and woodland and the Stratford-upon-Avon Canal runs through it. It is home to Earlswood Lakes Sailing Club, Earlswood Cricket Club and Earlswood Town Football Club.

It gives its name to Earlswood Lakes (entirely within Warwickshire) and to Earlswood railway station (on the border).
