Description
Hereford appears to be a peaceful place, but for half its existence it was a strategic center in an often troubled and bloody border between England and Wales. This city has a rich history of dark secrets and uncanny events, from the ghost of a verger who brought down the cathedral tower to the unquiet spirit of a wronged apprentice. The stories behind these spectral phenomena are not just mere local legends, but rather a fascinating re-telling of the city's past that will make you look at Hereford with fresh eyes. Whether you're a tourist or resident, this book offers an in-depth exploration of the city's haunted history. By delving into the darker side of Hereford's past, you'll gain a new appreciation for the city and its surroundings. This is not just a gazetteer, but a compelling narrative that will leave you with a fresh perspective on this often-overlooked corner of England.
