This picturesque village on
the banks of the River Wye lies in an area of
great natural beauty and has become a popular
watering hole with ramblers on the Wye Valley
Walk. The Heart of Oak Society also stages an
annual walk in which villagers brandishing
flower-bedecked sticks call at houses along the
way for the odd glass of locally-made cider. The
ancient parish church, St Mary's, is one of the
longest churches in Herefordshire at 119 feet. Its
central tower dates to the 12th century and a
major attraction is a sculpture of the Virgin and
Child by Herefordshire School sculptors. |
