Highlight • Other

Lingen village is in the north-western area of Herefordshire, close to the boarder with Wales.

Lingen Motte-and-Bailey Castle Earthworks

Highlight • Historical Site

Nestled in the rolling countryside of the Marches, Lingen is a pleasant little Herefordshire village. Like many in the region, it was home to a Norman motte-and-bailey castle. All that remains are the earthworks.

There is a wealth of hiking potential in the surrounding wooded hills. Real ales, log fires and traditional home cooked food can be sought at the Royal George, the village's pub. It is worth noting that it is only open for lunches on Sundays.

Knighton Clock Tower

Highlight • Monument

Knighton is a market town with winding streets and half-timbered houses. There is evidence of human settlement at Knighton since the Stone Age, but the town you see today is mostly of medieval origin. The Welsh name for the town is ‘Tref-y-Clawdd’, which means ‘town on the Dyke’, and Knighton is the only town to lie on the line of Offa’s Dyke, a large linear earthwork along the England and Wales border named after Offa, the Anglo-Saxon king of Mercia from AD 757 until 796, who is believed to have ordered its construction. As such, it is the spiritual home of Offa and the Offa’s Dyke National Trail.

Brampton Bryan Village

Highlight • Monument

A little village that lies close to the boarder of Wales in the NW corner of Herefordshire. There is a castle but rarely open (scarecrow Sunday). It also has 16 building/ monuments that are listed on the National Heritage List. The white thatch cottages on the green, probably C17 to early C18. And the drinking fountain, mid C19. Cast iron. Fluted column with iron mask to front. It no longer works! Are just 2 of the 16. A remarkable lumpy free-form yew hedge dominates the village. At approximately half a mile in length is reputed to be the longest free-form or cloud yew hedge in England. Saving the best till last if it’s fresh coffee and homemade cake you like then don’t miss Aardvark Books. Closed on a Monday otherwise open from 10:00-16:00.
