About

Dymock ward lies within the northernmost section of the Forest of Dean district, bordering Herefordshire. The area is predominantly rural, characterised by farmland, orchards, and scattered settlements rather than a single large village. The landscape is gently rolling, with the River Leadon forming part of its western boundary. Agriculture, particularly fruit farming, has long been a central part of the local economy and shapes the area's visual character.

The ward encompasses several small parishes and hamlets, including Dymock, Kempley, and Oxenhall. The area is known for its historic churches, such as St Mary's in Dymock, which feature notable medieval architecture and wall paintings. The surrounding lanes and footpaths provide access to quiet countryside, with the Daffodil Way walking trail celebrating the wild daffodils that bloom in local woods and meadows during spring.
