About

Glasbury ward sits within the community of Glasbury, positioned along the River Wye which forms the historic border between Powys and Herefordshire. The area is primarily defined by its riverside setting and agricultural land, with scattered settlements and farmsteads. The geography is one of gentle valleys and low hills, with the river providing a central focus for the landscape.

The ward includes the small village of Glasbury itself, which contains a church, a primary school, and a village hall. A notable feature is the presence of two historic bridges crossing the Wye, connecting the area to neighbouring counties. Land use is dominated by pastoral farming, with pockets of woodland. The surrounding terrain consists of open fields and hedgerows characteristic of this part of the Welsh Marches.
