Welcome to Hereford
Hereford is an historic Cathedral City with a fascinating past and a busy
present. Its modern origins lie in the 7th century and its strategic site on the Wye, in the much
disputed borderland between England and Wales, made it as important to the Saxons as to the
Normans and their successors.
The City played a leading part in the events before and after the Norman Conquest, through the
turbulent Middle Ages and during the Civil War. It developed as a quiet market town and Cathedral
City. Today it is vigorous and thriving, a home for 53,000 people and a focal point of a rich
farming area.
Booked Talks
We are also able to offer talks to groups who may not
be able to come on a walk and would like to learn more about the history of our city.
If you would like to make a booking for 2024 then please contact the
Booking Secretary
to discuss your requirements.
