Hey everyone! Earlier this year we spent one week in Herefordshire and the surrounding area for a big family get together. In this video we show you the best things to do in Herefordshire, England including Black Hill, Hereford, Hay-on-Wye and Ludlow. (And yes we know Hay-on-Wye and Ludlow aren't technically in Herefordshire but they are easily doable as a day trip from Hereford and are well worth a visit if you are in the area!)
Herefordshire is a county of England bordering South Wales and is full of rolling farmland, wooded hills and beautiful river valleys. We have a whole video planned for the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which is why it doesn't feature in this one! But as you will soon see you should definitely add it to your list of places to see in Herefordshire along with the locations in this video!

A Close-Up Look at the amazing HEREFORD, UK
The cathedral city of Hereford sits on the banks of the River Wye. Hereford is situated in the West Midlands region of England. The city has good train links with Wales, Midlands and the North West and the occasional train to London.
Link to map of the walk
There is plenty to see and do in Hereford. Visit the cathedral and see the Mappa Mundi. Clergymen drew the map of the world in 1290. If you like museums then head to the Black and White house museum with its local history or maybe try the Hereford museum and art gallery. For open spaces head to College Green for views of the River Wye. Shoppers won't be disappointed as Hereford has an indoor and outdoor market. There are plenty of independent shops and your usual big brand shops.
I traveled by train from Oxford to Hereford with Great Western Railways using a split save ticket.

Ross-on-Wye is a small market town in south eastern Herefordshire, England, located on the River Wye, and on the northern edge of the Forest of Dean. Ross-on-Wye was the birthplace of the British tourist industry. In 1745, the rector, Dr John Egerton, started taking friends on boat trips down the valley from his rectory at Ross. The Wye Valley's attraction was its river scenery, its precipitous landscapes, and its castles and abbeys, which were accessible to seekers of the Picturesque.
The Prospect was created by John Kyrle and offers superb views over the Wye and to the Welsh mountains. The land was rented by John Kyrle from the Marquess of Bath in 1696 and turned into a garden and walking area.
The town of Ross on Wye is known for its independent shops, picturesque streets and market square with its market hall. Regular Thursday and Saturday markets are held at the red sandstone Market House building in Ross on Wye centre, which was built between 1650 and 1654 replacing the older, probably wooden Booth Hall.
Opposite the church, The Prospect is a public garden offering a view of the famous horseshoe bend in the River Wye, as well as views as far as the Black Mountains. The ruins of Wilton Castle, which lie to the west of the town, have now been restored and are open to visitors. Ross on Wye has a number of sculptures created by Walenty Pytel, the left bank of the River Wye shows two of these. Despite the commonly held belief that both depict swans, one in fact shows ducks.
The former Ross-on-Wye railway station was a junction railway station on the Hereford, Ross and Gloucester Railway constructed to the north of the town. It was the terminus of the Ross and Monmouth Railway, which joined the Hereford, Ross and Gloucester just south of the station. Today, although the nearest railway station is Ledbury on the Cotswold Line, Gloucester has a much better bus connection with Ross, and is a major interchange on the national rail network.
( Ross on Wye - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting the city of Ross on Wye . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Ross on Wye - UK

ROSS ON WYE | Full Historic Market Town Tour!
We visit ROSS ON WYE town centre in Herefordshire, England for a walking tour of the town, a look at the shops here and of course the historic market hall.
Also watch Whitby ????????
Ross On Wye is a small market town close to Gloucester, Ledbury and Hereford in the West Midlands and famous for it's beautiful streets of independent shops and great shopping, pulling in tourists from all over the country who travel to check out the tourist attractions and the shops here.
This is the first Gimbal Walk TV visit to Ross-On-Wye and we enjoyed it! Our time walking round the town centre and the shops was very enjoyable and we can't wait to visit there again!
Here are a few clips and quotes from websites about Ross On Wye:
Ross-on-Wye is a market town in England, near the border with Wales
Ross is well known for its many excellent independent and specialist shops, galleries, restaurants, cafes and hotels, many of which are dog friendly. There is also a Vintage Shopping Trail. Dominating the town is the spire of St Mary the Virgin Parish Church and next to it is the famous Prospect Gardens.
The town, located in the beautiful Wye river valley region, is famous for its panoramic views and attracts many tourists. It is also the centre of a highly productive agricultural district.
Ross-on-Wye Town Council is responsible for running the twice weekly markets which are held every Thursday and Saturday from 9.00am to 3.00pm.
Welcome to Ross on Wye
Embraced by the River Wye, Ross-on-Wye is an inviting place to potter. When William Gilpin wrote Britain’s first travel guidebook about the Wye Valley in 1782, he sparked a trend for ‘picturesque tourism’. Today, as well as enjoying that same scenic beauty, you can browse independent shops, saunter alongside the town’s 19th-century mock-Gothic walls and Gazebo Tower folly and admire pastel-hued dwellings tumbling down the hillside to the river.
The town is the centre of a region historically dubbed Archenfield or ‘Land of Hedgehogs’, and you’ll find examples of the icon in St Mary’s Church, dating back to the 17th century, and on more recent memorials to the Boer War and Second World War.
250 years of tourism
William Gilpin may not be a household name but his legacy has led to one of biggest industries in Britain.
It was 250 years ago in 1770 that he took the first step by organising boat trips along the River Wye, and writing a seminal bestselling book ‘Observations of the River Wye’.
From those humble but visionary beginnings what was later described as The Picturesque Movement came into being, giving a name to a new appreciation of the natural world and its beauty.
The Wye Valley is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, much as it was 250 years ago. This year, 2020, heralds a year long calender of arts, crafts and fun events to celebrate his achievement and the beauty of the Wye Valley. More information at:
Ross-on-Wye is voted UK’s best loved market town
Ross-on-Wye near the forest of dean has been voted the UK’s best-loved market town by a leading coach tour company.
National Express Managing Director Tom Stables said: “With its picturesque location and stunning Market House it’s hardly surprising Ross-on-Wye is regarded as one of the best towns in the UK. It’s tough to think of anything more quintessentially British than a market town and we think that’s worth celebrating”.
Ross-on-Wye is a small town in Herefordshire, England. The town sits on the River Wye and is set in the Welsh Marches. Ross-on-Wye has an historically important town centre with a market square and many interesting buildings.

Ross-on-Wye Walk: Town Centre【4K】
Located in the county of Herefordshire, and around eight miles away from the England-Wales border, is the town of Ross-on-Wye.
The name Ross-on-Wye is derived from the Welsh or Celtic, ‘Rhosan’ meaning ‘a promontory’ i.e. a raised mass of land. The 'on-Wye' suffix was added in 1931 by the General Post Office to help differentiate it from other similarly named places named, such as Ross in Scotland. It was granted a market charter in 1138 by King Stephen.
Between 1650 and 1654 the red sandstone Market House was built, where it stands to this day in the centre of the town. Overall, the architecture is a blend of Tudor, Georgian and Victorian buildings, with a few modern additions.
The name perhaps most closely associated with Ross-on-Wye is John Kyrle, a.k.a. The Man of Ross. Born in 1637, Kyrle studied law before inheriting the family estate in 1650. This included the timber-framed building overlooking Market House, known as The Man of Ross House, which can be seen prominently today. Kyrle had adopted a frugal lifestyle, and opted to spend his inheritance on his local community. His investments in Ross included public gardens, clean water and education.
In 1855 a railway station opened in Ross. This was a junction station on the Hereford, Ross and Gloucester Railway. However, in 1965 the station was closed as part of the Beeching cuts. The UK lost over 2,000 stations during this period as they were deemed economically inefficient with the increased uptake in road transport.
Ross-on-Wye is said to be the birthplace of British tourism. In the 18th Century, the Rector of Ross developed his Wye Tour along the river from Ross to Chepstow. After taking the tour, William Gilpin published the UK’s first guide book and by the end of the 18th Century the package tour was well established.

The Wye Valley
A look at some places along the River Wye in the Wye Valley as it meanders through Ross-on-Wye, Symonds Yat and south to Chepstow shortly before it meets the Severn Estuary.
Symonds Yat Rock is located within the borders of Herefordshire and Gloucestershire and very near the border of Monmouthshire with the River Wye meandering around its foot. Standing 120 metres above the Wye (Gloucestershire side) it is known for its viewpoints and spectacular views of the Wye Valley and The Royal Forest of Dean. It is also the site of an Iron Age hill fort. There are walking trails, a picnic area, café and a cycling trail. It is also a haven for wildlife and a birdwatcher's paradise where you can see Buzzards, Peregrine Falcons, Sparrowhawks, Goshawks, Kestrels, Ospreys, Tawny Owls, Barn Owls and Ravens... so make sure you take a pair of binoculars.
Symonds Yat is a village and tourist destination on the River Wye with beautiful riverside scenery and woodland. On the Herefordshire side of the River Wye is Symonds Yat West, Symonds Yat East is on the Gloucestershire side. 'Yat' is derived from a Sheriff named Robert Symonds and is the 'regional dialect' for 'gate' or 'pass'. For a small fee you can cross the river on two hand-pulled ferries where a ferryman pulls the ferry across using an overhead rope.
Ross-on-Wye in the south of Herefordshire is a well known and well loved market town. Once voted the UK's best-loved market town. Ross is regarded as being an ideal holiday spot for exploring the Wye Valley, the Forest of Dean, Symonds Yat and Monmouthshire in Wales. Here are a few views of streets and parkland near the River Wye.
Tintern Abbey is a majestic ruin on the River Wye at Tintern in Monmouthshire, Wales. Located on the A466 which follows the River Wye to the southern end of the Wye Valley. Its existence actually began in 1131 however a new abbey church was built in 1269. The abbey became a ruin in the 16th century after the Dissolution of the Monasteries. Today it is a popular tourist location attracting up to 70,000 people per year.
Monmouth in Wales is situated where the River Monnow joins the River Wye and well known for its iconic 13th century gatehouse bridge which construction dates back to 1272. A tourist destination and busy market town Monmouth is also popular with poets and artists and said to be the birthplace of tourism in Britain. Monnow Bridge originally replaced a 12th-century Norman timber bridge and is built mainly of Old Red Sandstone. The bridge crosses the River Monnow with the stunning gatehouse standing 11 metres above the bridge deck.
Chepstow in Monmouthshire, southeast Wales is located on the tidal River Wye. Chepstow Castle sits high on top of a limestone cliff above the River. It is a well preserved Norman Castle which construction began in 1067 by Earl William FitzOsbern and is the oldest surviving post-Roman stone fortification in Britain.
The Old Wye Bridge also known as Town Bridge crosses the tidal River Wye at Chepstow and is the largest iron arch road bridge remaining from the first half century of iron and steel construction. First opened on the 24th July 1816 linking Wales and England, this beautiful bridge was designed and built by John Urpeth Rastrick.

We arrive at Ross-on-Wye
We travelled from Brecon to Ross-on-Wye on our way to Worcester and stayed at Broadmeadow Park.
This was a large campsite with good facilities. The downside was in relation to dogs. Although there was a large dog-walking area, it wasn't suitable to let them off-lead and it wasn't allowed either. This was due to the fact there were swans and ducks in and around the pond.
We cycled into Ross. The campsite is in the town so it is possible to walk too.
