Bodenham is a small rural village and civil parish in Herefordshire, England, sitting on the floodplain of the River Lugg a few miles north‑east of Hereford. The surrounding landscape of pastures, hedgerows and orchards is typical of the county and supports a variety of wetland and farmland wildlife, with seasonal flooding and river meadows shaping both scenery and land use.
Long rooted in agriculture, the settlement still shows traditional timber‑framed buildings and a compact village core, and retains an active community life through a village hall, local events and a parish council. Economically it combines farming and small local businesses with a degree of commuting into nearby Hereford, while conservation of the river corridor and historic character are important local concerns.
