How Caple is a small, rural parish in Herefordshire, set among rolling farmland, hedgerows and pockets of ancient woodland. Narrow lanes and stone-built farmsteads give it a quietly remote feel, while the patchwork of fields and old hedgerows reflect a long agricultural history.
Historic interest centres on a number of country houses and the old parish church, and one notable estate, How Caple Court, contributes to the sense of layered history. The local economy is largely agricultural with some equestrian activity and small rural enterprises, and socially the area is typical of the county’s quieter communities - close-knit, with occasional village events, conservation efforts and a modest flow of visitors enjoying walking and countryside pursuits.
