Location - Kempley is a parish and village in the Forest of Dean district of Gloucestershire, close to the border with Herefordshire. It lies 17 miles (27km) northwest of Gloucester and 17 (27km) miles southeast of Hereford. The nearest market towns of Newent and Ross-on-Wye are 4.7 and 6.3 miles (7.6 and 10.1 km) respectively.
