Bromyard is a small market town in north‑east Herefordshire, England, sitting on high, rolling countryside and overlooked by the open common of Bromyard Downs. It has a long history as a market and fair town, reflected in a core of timber‑framed buildings and a substantial parish church, and benefits from views towards the Malvern Hills and the surrounding orchards and pastureland.

Today the local economy is still rooted in agriculture and food production, with a lively scene of independent shops, workshops and community groups, while annual events such as the long‑running folk festival and town gala give it a strong social life. Its size and position near the Worcestershire border also make it a popular base for commuters and walkers exploring the Herefordshire countryside.
