About

Credenhill ward encompasses a large rural area north of Hereford city. It includes the village of Credenhill itself, along with smaller settlements like Upper Lyde and Burghill. The landscape is characterised by agricultural land, woodland, and the prominent wooded hill of Credenhill Park Wood, an Iron Age hillfort site. The ward is primarily residential and farming-based, with local amenities centred in the villages.

A notable feature is the presence of the former RAF Credenhill site, which was historically home to the SAS regiment. This large, secured complex sits on the edge of the village. The ward's rural character is defined by lanes connecting farms and hamlets, with views towards the Welsh Marches. The Roman town of Magnis was also historically located within this area.
