About

Tidenham is a civil parish ward located on the western bank of the River Severn within the Forest of Dean district. The area encompasses several villages, including Tutshill and Sedbury, and features a mix of residential and rural landscapes. Its geography is defined by the steep limestone cliffs of the Wye Valley, which form its western boundary, and low-lying meadows near the Severn estuary. The ward contains sections of ancient woodland and maintained farmland, with a network of public footpaths crossing the terrain.

A notable landmark is the Offa's Dyke Path, which follows the historic earthwork along the ward's high ground. The area includes the Tidenham Chase woodlands and the tidal reaches of the River Wye at Beachley. Local infrastructure is connected to the larger town of Chepstow, which lies immediately across the Welsh border. The settlement pattern is predominantly characterised by villages and scattered housing rather than a single concentrated town centre.
