Membury is a small rural village in East Devon, in the county of Devon, England, lying close to the Devon–Somerset border and set among the rolling farmland and heath of the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Its landscape is marked by ancient earthworks - most notably the nearby Membury Camp - and a long agricultural heritage; today the local economy is largely farming alongside a number of residents who commute to nearby market towns such as Axminster and Honiton. Socially it remains a small, close‑knit community with rural traditions and occasional village events rather than a busy tourist centre.
