Most of the land occupied by Bartley Reservoir was in the parish of Northfield, originally in
Worcestershire . It was transferred toWarwickshire when Northfield became part of Birmingham in November, 1911, and thus became part of the West Midlands county on the latter's creation in 1974.However, the south-west end of the reservoir overlapped into the parish of Frankley, in Worcestershire (
Hereford and Worcester , from 1974) Wikimedia Foundation. 2010.
