Yarpole is a small village in rural north Herefordshire, England located between Leominster and Ludlow, Shropshire.

St Leonard's church [1] chancel was restored by Sir George Gilbert Scott in 1864.[2] The church has a separate bell tower.[3] The main timbers of the bell tower have been dated by dendrochronology to 1192, making this one of the oldest timber-framed structures in England. [1]

The village has a gastro pub. [4] [5]
