켄트처치‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 천연기념물

Although you can barely walk about 2.5m above the surrounding land on this 12-century-old dike, you still get a nice picture of the area. For those walking the Beacons Way, this is a nice run-up to the hills of Brecon Beacon National Park.

The trig point on Hatterrall Hill stands at 531m. The summit is part of the Hatterrall Ridge which runs north south from Llanvihangel Crucorney up to Hay Bluff. The Offa’s Dyke National Trail follows the ridge path.

Hidden a quiet part of Little Birch village, the brickwork of Higgins' Well dates from the early 19th century. Some improvements were added later, including a large pool as an animal trough for use during Victoria's diamond jubilee. Higgins Well has long been an important and unfailing supply of water for the village. A local legend about the well, as told on http://www.visitoruk.com/Hereford/little-birch-C592-V11335.html runs as follows: "The original outlet for the waters of the well was in a meadow at the top of the steep bank which rises above the present well. The owner of this meadow became so annoyed at the trespasses of the villagers across his land to the well that he had it filled up. However, shortly afterwards, while smoking his pipe in the great chimney corner of his house, he was startled by a sudden eruption of water under his feet." "To his untutored mind, the waters forcing this new outlet were a sign that the guardian spirit protecting the local people's rights was asserting itself. To appease this spirit, but determined not to reopen the well, he moved down to the present site and started to dig. In due course water began to bubble up through the underlying rock and, miraculously, the inrush in the chimney corner disappeared. The water spirit was obviously satisfied that water was once again made available to the people. This "act of contrition" resulted in local immortality for Mr Higgins."

Fairly easy trail, can get a little muddy if it has been raining heavily.

Really cool trail, nice to look to one side and see England, and to the other and see Wales. Interesting that England is mostly farmland, whilst Wales is nice and wild.

Hatterrall Hill – Mynydd Y Gader in Welsh – is a rounded high point towards the southern end of the Black Mountains' easternmost arm. Both the Offa's Dyke Path and Beacons Way pass its 1,742-foot (531 m) summit, which provides excellent views east into England and west, across the Black Mountains towards the Central Beacons. The ridge continues for many miles to the northwest, gaining height and eventually terminating on Hay Bluff.

Graig Syfyrddin or just The Graig, is a 423m high hill near Grosmont in north-eastern Monmouthshire, Wales. The summit knoll is known as Edmund's Tump. The hill consists of an isolated mass of the micaceous sandstones of the Brownstones Formation, a unit of the Old Red Sandstone well known from the nearby Black Mountains, of which it can be considered an outlier in both the geographical and geological sense

Offa's Dyke (Welsh: Clawdd Offa) is a large linear earthwork that roughly follows the current border between England and Wales. The structure is named after Offa, the Anglo-Saxon king of Mercia from AD 757 until 796, who is traditionally believed to have ordered its construction. Although its precise original purpose is debated, it delineated the border between Anglian Mercia and the Welsh kingdom of Powys. The earthwork, which was up to 65 feet (20 m) wide (including its flanking ditch) and 8 feet (2.4 m) high, traversed low ground, hills and rivers. Today it is protected as a scheduled monument. Some of its route is followed by the Offa's Dyke Path; a 176-mile (283 km) long-distance footpath that runs between Liverpool Bay in the north and the Severn Estuary in the south. Although the Dyke has conventionally been dated to the Early Middle Ages of Anglo-Saxon England, research in recent decades – using techniques such as radioactive carbon dating – has challenged the conventional historiography and theories about the earthwork, and show that it was started in the early fifth century, during the sub-Roman period.
