Bredenbury is a village and civil parish in Herefordshire, England. It lies about 12.5 miles northeast of Hereford, on the A44 road, 3 miles from Bromyard and 8 miles from Leominster.

The parish had a population of 169 at the 2011 census, down from 185 in 2001. It is grouped with Grendon Bishop and Wacton to form Bredenbury & District Group Parish Council for local administration.

The parish church is dedicated to St Andrew. It was built in the 1870s in the style of a 14th-century church, from a design by T. H. Wyatt. The land for the church was donated by William Barneby of nearby Bredenbury Court, and the Barneby family funded many interior furnishings. Wyatt also designed the first phase of Bredenbury Court in the Italianate style, with an extension added in 1902 by Sir Guy Dawber.

Bredenbury Primary School is smaller than average but was rated outstanding by Ofsted in 2008.

Bredenbury Court Barns is a historic venue in the area and is now used for weddings.
