According to Harper Bridges - This bridge was commissioned by the congregations of the churches of Sellack Boat and King’s Caple and built in 1895. The towers are of tubular cast iron, with nameplate transoms embossed “Louis Harper AIMCE, Maker, Aberdeen”. The original cables to common anchorages are still in place, as are their hangers. However, at some stage (nobody seems to know when or why) further short cables were clamped to the original, presumably to support areas of wear and avoid cable replacement. This has led to crowding at the saddles. However, the bridge is still used and the local churches continue to hold their ‘Bridge Thanksgiving’ ceremony each year. This area is noted for its flooding but so far the bridge has held since the arched deck remains above the flow, although the approaches are inundated. It lacks the original longitudinal deck boarding but the original camber is well maintained. This bridge is the best illustration of the method of attachment of hangars to main cable employed by John and Louis Harper

360 degree views over 5 counties - worth the ride to the top

The Cathedral Green is open to bikes and Church Street, leading off it to the north, has several good cafes you can stop at.

Haugh Woods Butterfly Trails are two short trails that meander the ancient woodland of Haugh Woods. The trails have been set up by Forestry England to allow everyone to enjoy the numerous butterflies and moths that live here. This is an important site for UK butterflies (we are in short supply!) and this woodland gives nearly 350 hectares or 850 acres for them to breed. There are about over 600 of both species living here!

The well-maintained cathedral is pleasing to the eye.

Nice view from the bridge.

You can cycle through the cathedral close to connect the route through town, avoiding some of the one-way system.

Note for dog walkers - there are sheep and horses present, so dogs need to be kept on lead.

Haugh Woods has 2 butterfly trails (of short distance) that provide a great route through the north and south of the woods, respectively. Good paths underfoot, and great butterfly habitat.

The location of Hereford Cathedral has been a place of worship since the 8th centaury. Parts of the present building date back as far as 1079. Nowadays as well as being a spectacular building the cathedral has a collection of chained books including the Mappa Mundi, a medievel map of the world created in about 1300.

Built in 1895 to link the parish churches of Sellack and Kings Caple, this is an impressive footbridge across the River Wye. Before the bridge was built, a ferry would take residents from bank to bank. However, it has been said that the boatmen could often be cantankerous and refuse passage. This caused one vicar to defiantly cross the Wye on stilts, or so the story goes...

Garway Hill is a 1,200-foot (366 m) summit in Herefordshire, England. It has a trig-pointed summit and is a UK listed Marilyn. The views from the top are fantastic, with Wales' Black Mountains in the west and the Wye Valley in the east.

The Old Bridge was built in the 14th century, replacing an older wooden river crossing. From the bridge you get a lovely view over Hereford Cathedral. An iconic Hereford landscape is also of the bridge crossing the River Wye with Hereford Cathedral in the background.

The location of Hereford Cathedral has been a site of worship since at least the 8th century. The oldest part of the building you can observe today, however, is the bishop's chapel, which dates to the 11th century. The cathedral, which is Grade I-listed, is home to Mappa Mundi, a medieval map of the world created around 1300 by Richard of Holdingham.

Hereford Cathedral is a wonderful church dating back to the 8th century or earlier. The cathedral is known as the home of the Mappa Mundi. Created around 1300 by Richard of Holdingham, the map is featured on the UNESCO Memory of the World Register. There is also a chained library at the cathedral. You can visit the cathedral from 9.15am until Evensong daily. The onsite cafe is open from 10am to 5pm. You can find more information, here: https://www.herefordcathedral.org/
