Golden Valley

About

Golden Valley is a rural area in Herefordshire, known for its rolling hills and farmland. The landscape is shaped by the River Dore, which flows through the valley, creating a mix of meadows and woodland. The area is sparsely populated, with small villages and hamlets scattered across the countryside. Agriculture plays a key role, with livestock farming and cider production being common.

The valley has historic ties to the Norman era, with several churches and castles in the surrounding area. Walking trails and quiet country lanes make it popular for outdoor activities. Local landmarks include Arthur’s Stone, a Neolithic burial chamber, and the market town of Dorstone. The pace of life here is slow, with a focus on traditional rural living.
