About

Leominster South ward encompasses the southern portion of the historic market town of Leominster, situated on the River Lugg. The area includes the town centre with its timber-framed buildings and the notable Priory Church. Residential streets extend southward, blending older properties with more modern housing developments. The ward's geography is largely defined by the flat river valley, with agricultural land and smaller watercourses marking its southern boundaries.

The economy is centred on local retail, services, and light industry, supported by the town's role as a commercial hub for the surrounding rural area. The Herefordshire Trail passes through the ward, connecting to the wider countryside. Leominster's railway station, providing links to Hereford, Shrewsbury, and the Welsh Marches line, is a key transport feature located here, facilitating both commuting and the movement of goods.
