Hergest Ridge East Car Park is a remote, free off-road parking area on Ridgebourne Road just east of Kington (postcode HR5). The gravel parking bay accommodates around 10 vehicles and serves as the eastern trailhead for the popular Hergest Ridge walking routes, including the Ridgeline Way to Hergest Ridge summit (426 m) and back into Kington market town. There is no formal barrier or payment machine; parking is wholly free and unrestricted. A wooden information board at the entrance displays walking maps and wildlife guidance. The surface is loose stone that may get muddy in wet weather, and no lighting is provided, so early-morning starts before dawn require torchlight. A single bench overlooks farmland to the north, and a stile gives direct access to public footpaths across common land. The site is managed by Herefordshire County Council in partnership with local landowners; occasional sheep grazing in adjacent fields necessitates caution when parking.
