Gilfach Herefordshire Map

About Gilfach

Gilfach rests within a landscape of gentle slopes and hedgerows, a quiet corner of Herefordshire. It lies 17.5 km west-south-west of Hereford (from Hereford: bearing 250°T, OS grid SO 343 341), and is situated east-south-east of Upper Maes-coed village. The air here often carries the scent of damp earth and ripening hedgerow fruit, a testament to the fertile soil that has sustained agricultural life for generations. Farmsteads, their stone walls softened by the passage of seasons, dot the surrounding fields, their roofs catching the low afternoon sun with a warm, ochre glow. The handful of dwellings that comprise Gilfach seem to huddle together for comfort, their gardens spilling over with the vibrant colours of hardy perennials. A particular quietude pervades the hamlet, broken only by the distant bleating of sheep or the rustle of leaves in the ancient oaks that stand sentinel along the lanes.
