Map of the UK

Linton is a small, predominantly rural civil parish in Herefordshire, England, set among the county's rolling farmland, hedgerows and quiet lanes. The settlement is a scattering of farms and stone cottages rather than a compact village, and the landscape is popular with walkers and riders enjoying the peaceful countryside.

Locally the economy remains rooted in agriculture - mixed arable and livestock farming with the sort of fruit growing and cider-making traditions common to the area - and the parish retains historic touches such as an old parish church and a handful of listed buildings. Social life is defined by a close-knit community with a village hall and occasional fêtes and events, while many households now combine rural living with work in nearby towns.
