Lower Lyde is a small village in Herefordshire, around 3 miles (5 km) north of Hereford city centre. It forms part of the Pipe and Lyde civil parish. The village can be easily accessed from the A49 road.[1]

The main buildings are Lower Lyde Farm and Lower Lyde Court, a venue for weddings and performing arts events.[2]

In the valley below the village are the River Lugg, the Welsh Marches railway line and the Wergins Stone, a prehistoric standing stone.[1][3]
