Apart from the occasional farm cottage or farmhouse, most housing in the village is predominantly a mix of post First World War council housing, and mid-1960s to 1980s buildings. The post World War II housing is mainly near the north side of the village, while the 1970s and 1980s housing was built on the south and west. Mid-1960s housing occupies the centre of the village. In the 1970 and 1980s, bungalows and dormers proliferated while the 1960s housing is the more traditional three or four bedroom semi-detached type. A petrol station was closed around 2000, demolished, and the land used for housing in 2001. Clehonger has a small shop with post office, and a village hall which is the base for a pre-school. The village school, for 5–11 year olds, accommodates approximately 130-150 pupils, its catchment area including Belmont (a suburb of Hereford), 2 miles away. Broadband services became available in the village from June 2005. The village pub, The Seven Stars, was one of the first pubs in Herefordshire to have a petanque piste. The 12th-century parish church, dedicated to All Saints, is a Grade I listed building significant for its monuments to the local Pembridge manorial family. The major road link is the B4349, which passes through the middle of the village. Clehonger is served by two bus routes: Cardiff to Hereford via Hay-on-Wye and Brecon; and Madley to Hereford.
