At the centre of the hamlet lies a crossroads of four lanes: one leads to the B4370 road, half a mile southeast at Cwm Head; another leads to the hamlet of Minton, 1¼ miles to the northeast; the third leads to Priors Holt and Churchmoor, to the west; and the fourth is a green lane heading to farms to the southwest. The centre of Hamperley lies at 233m above sea level. The area is very rural and is at the southern end of the Long Mynd hill range.
