수도원 도레‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪12‬개의 천연기념물

Oldest man made structure in Herefordshire, and a rightly famous ancient monument in a superb setting.

Another incredible historic site. With free parking.

Great spot for a break

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.

Choice of two absolutely brutal climbs from the Wye valley to get here but rewarded with fantastic views across the Golden Valley towards the Black Mountains. If that felt like hard work, think of the people who moved the 25 ton capstone up here!

Black Hill stands at the top of the Cat's Back ridge and south of Hay Bluff. The running here is really fun, with good trails underfoot and soaring ridgelines with very far-reaching views. The summit trig point stands at 2,100 feet (640 m).

Black Hill stands at 2,100 feet (640 m) in the Black Mountain region of Bannau Brycheiniog national park. It's the summit of the awesome Cat's Back ridge to the south and links easily into a nice loop with Hay Bluff to the north.

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."
