Map of the UK

The village and civil parish of Moreton on Lugg lies a few miles north of Hereford in Herefordshire, England, set beside the marshy floodplain of the River Lugg. Its name reflects the wetter, meadowed ground around the river and the settlement benefits from close road links to the city, so it combines a quiet rural feel with straightforward commuting.

Historically agricultural, the parish still shows its farming roots in pastures, orchards and hedged fields and retains a small historic core with vernacular cottages and a parish church among a handful of listed buildings. Today the local economy mixes farming and small businesses with residents who work in Hereford, and community life is typical of a small Herefordshire parish, centred on local facilities and occasional village events.
