ボルストーンのおすすめツーリングルート

橋があることの他の理由をいくつかご紹介します。 「イングリッシュ・フォイ」（東岸、ホール・イン・ザ・ウォール）の信者が、フェリーに頼ることなく「ウェルシュ・フォイ」（西岸）の教会に到達できるようにするためです。 地元の話によると、もっと現実的な理由もあります。パブはイギリス側にあり、信頼できる渡し舟があれば地元の人々や渡し守の両方の生活が楽になったのです。

This is a particularly fine stretch of the river Wye, as recognized by the Wye Valley National Landscape. The stretched out village of Hoarwithy occupies the west bank, with its unusual Italianate St Catherine's church. The river is crossed by the old toll bridge with it's little Tollhouse - they stopped collecting tolls in the 1930's when the bridge was bought for public ownership.

In the words of the National Tranport Trust - Wilton Bridge is an exceptionally fine red sandstone bridge. In 1597 an Act was passed authorising its construction. It was completed within the next 2 years. There are five semi- circular arches each with 3 ribs and massive cutwaters on each side, carried up and splayed back from the outer angle at parapet level forming semi-hexagonal refuges. At the point where the splay dies out is a moulded string which is mitred and carried up to the angle against the spandrils of the arches and then mitred and carried across to form a label above the arches. The voussoirs of the arches are chamfered and joggled and have various masons' marks. On the upstream side the bridge has been widened but now the parapet has been replaced by a wooden handrail. The South East approach to the bridge has been rebuilt in ashlar with 2 flights of stone steps to the river bank. The sundial, formerly in one of the refuges has disappeared, and only the base of the pedestal remains. All in all it is a fine bridge, and has done well to weather the floods that happen most winters - as evidenced by the erosion of even the top stones on the arches.

Hole-in-the-Wall is a settlement on the banks of the River Wye close to Foy and Ross-on-Wye. It's a wonderfully peaceful place to sit and watch the river.

Located on Wilton Road just outside Ross-on-Wye, Wilton Bridge, constructed between 1597 and 1599, is crafted from red sandstone. It replaced a previous wooden bridge that had taken the place of the original ford in the Wye.
