Aymestrey ( /ˈeɪmstriː/ AYM-stree) is a village and civil parish in north-western Herefordshire, England.
The population of this civil parish, including the hamlet of Yatton, at the 2011 Census was 351.
Aymestrey is home to several homes and cottages,[2] the church dedicated to St John the Baptist and St Alkmund,[3][4] a village hall[5] and a pub or Inn: The Riverside Inn,[6] situated next to River Lugg[7] just off the main road.
In 1987, the Aymestrey burial, an Early Bronze Age, beaker cist, was discovered during gravel working.
Aymestrey is featured in the supernatural crime novel Foxglove Summer by Ben Aaronovitch, where it is described as being "less a village than a diorama of the last six hundred years of English vernacular architecture stretched along either side of the road.”
