The Burghill Parish has undertaken to prepare an NDP and this process has been subject to environmental appraisal pursuant to the SEA Directive. The centre of the Parish lies approximately 4 miles to the north west of Hereford City and to the north of the A4103 which is on an east west alignment of the former Roman Road, the defining northern city limit.
