About

Belmont Rural ward lies directly south of Hereford city, forming a transitional zone between urban and agricultural landscapes. The area encompasses several small villages and hamlets, including Belmont itself, which are connected by a network of lanes and the main A465 road. Residential development is mixed, with older cottages and more modern housing estates. The ward is bordered by the River Wye to the west, with areas of open farmland and pasture defining much of its character.

A notable local feature is the presence of the former Belmont Abbey, a 19th-century Benedictine monastery with distinctive architecture, which now serves as a retreat and conference centre. The ward includes playing fields, a primary school, and some light industrial units near the city fringe. Its topography is generally flat, part of the river's floodplain, supporting agricultural use. The community maintains a distinct identity separate from the city, with local facilities centred around the villages.
