Croft Ambrey Running Club takes its name from the Ambrey above Croft Castle in north Herefordshire, the scene of much of its training, most particularly perhaps in the early days of the club in the 1980s.

Running club members of both sexes come mostly from the surrounding areas of north Herefordshire and south Shropshire ( Ludlow, Leominster and outlying villages ).
