Humber is a small, quiet civil parish in northern Herefordshire, a short drive east of Leominster and within easy reach of Hereford. It occupies rolling farmland and orchards with hedgerow-lined lanes and scattered farms and cottages rather than a single large village, giving a distinctly rural character.
The local economy is largely agricultural, with a long tradition of fruit-growing and cider-making in the county, and the parish contains a number of historic buildings including timber-framed houses and a long‑established parish church. Social life tends to centre on farming, parish events and small rural enterprises, with many residents commuting to nearby towns for work and services.
