The physical geography is defined by its position within the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with the River Wye forming part of its western boundary.

The area's economy has traditionally been based on agriculture. A notable local feature is the Croesonen Hillfort, an ancient scheduled monument that offers views across the surrounding countryside.
