Map of the UK

Bredwardine is a small, riverside village and civil parish in Herefordshire, tucked into the gentle hills and meadows of the River Wye valley. The settlement has a distinctly rural feel, with lanes, hedgerows and pasturelands framing views down to the water; the surrounding countryside is popular with walkers, anglers and paddlers enjoying the peaceful Wye corridor.

Historically the parish centres on an old stone bridge, a parish church and the historic manor of Bredwardine Court, and it crops up in late‑19th‑century diary writing that celebrated local country life. Today the local economy remains largely agricultural, supported by a small, close‑knit community and occasional visitors drawn by the scenery, history and the slower pace of rural Herefordshire living.
