Wellington, a village in Herefordshire, England at grid reference SO494481 had a population of 1005 in the 2011 census .^[1]

The village is sheltered by the wooded slopes of Dinmore Hill to the north, close to the A49 and roughly midway between Hereford and Leominster. Its half timbered 'black and white' houses mixed with later types of buildings in stone and brick give it a strong regional character. A ford through the Wellington Brook by the church is a unique and picturesque sight.

The local church is dedicated to St. Margaret of Antioch and is a grade I listed building.^[2]

The village is a compact settlement mentioned in the Domesday Book.

The community is enthusiastic and has recently built an attractive and very successful village shop with a post office and meeting room for hire. An enthusiastic group is mounting a bid to buy the village pub and restore it to success. Another group is developing a much needed children's play area on the sports field. Other groups are establishing accessible footpaths for the disabled.
