Clifford is a small village and civil parish in Herefordshire, sited on a limestone promontory above the eastern bank of the River Wye, directly opposite Hay-on-Wye. The skyline is still marked by the atmospheric remains of Norman Clifford Castle, and the surrounding Wye Valley landscape draws walkers, canoeists and anyone who enjoys dramatic river scenery.
Historically a medieval riverside settlement, the village retains timber-framed houses, a parish feel and a handful of local services, while the local economy is rooted in mixed agriculture and orchards with tourism and hospitality providing extra income. It’s a quiet, close-knit community with a strong sense of place and easy access to country walks and river activities.
