Herefordshire Lowlands, Western Mixed
Author(s): Jeremy Lake
This area is almost entirely within Herefordshire, with small areas to the north and east in Shropshire, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire. It is bounded by the North West Herefordshire Hills and the Black Mountains to the north and west, the Malverns and Bromyard plateau to the east and the Wye Valley to the south. Much of the area is fertile farmland with wide floodplains and undulating topography, with the hills of Dinmore and Wormsley rising above this. Of the Character Area, 4% is urban and 5% is woodland, whilst 1% lies within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).
