About

Hereford South West encompasses a mix of residential suburbs and open farmland on the city's outskirts. The area is bordered by the River Wye to the east and the A49 road to the west, with streets of mostly post-war housing extending towards the villages of Holmer and Hampton Park. Several large retail parks and light industrial units are concentrated along Holmer Road, serving as a commercial hub for the wider community.

The landscape becomes more rural to the south and west, with fields and scattered farmsteads. A notable local feature is the Church of St. Mary the Virgin in Burghill, its 14th-century tower visible across the flat farmland. The Herefordshire Trail long-distance footpath passes through this part of the parish, connecting the area to wider countryside walks.
