The City of Hereford - Herefordshire's county town, lies 14 miles north, west of Ross-on-Wye by road. Hereford Cathedral is the home of a chained Library, the Diocesan Treasury and the 'Mappa Mundi,' which is the oldest surviving map of the world, drawn on a piece of Vellum in about A.D. 1290 by Richard de Haldingham.

Hereford is a beautiful city, well worth a visit if touring the Wye Valley. As I do not travel to Hereford that often myself though, the photographs on this page were just taken on occasions I was there for other reasons than photography and I have not taken them under good light conditions - just as it was at the time.
