Map of the UK

Kings Caple is a small rural parish in Herefordshire, set on the east bank of the River Wye between Hereford and Ross-on-Wye. The landscape is classically Herefordshire - rolling farmland, river meadows and wooded valleys - which makes it popular with walkers, anglers and canoeists exploring the Wye Valley.

The community is small and agricultural in character, with mixed farms, orchards and a modest amount of rural tourism supporting local businesses. The parish has a long history visible in older buildings and a village church, and village life revolves around community events, the village hall and activities linked to the river and countryside rather than heavy industry or urban services.
