About

Golden Valley North is a large rural ward covering the northern section of the Golden Valley in western Herefordshire. The area is defined by its agricultural landscape, with farms and small settlements spread across rolling hills and the valley floor. The River Dore flows through the ward, supporting this pastoral character. The communities here are small and dispersed, with the village of Dorstone serving as a central point.

The ward contains significant historical features, including the Iron Age hillfort of Credenhill Camp. Arthur's Stone, a Neolithic burial chamber, is a notable ancient monument overlooking the valley. The local economy remains closely tied to the land, primarily focused on livestock and crop farming. This creates a quiet, working countryside atmosphere distinct from more tourist-oriented parts of the county.
