Description
Discover the rich history of Hereford, from its Saxon roots to its medieval past.
The city's story begins with the establishment of St Guthlac's monastery in AD 680, followed by the construction of the cathedral around this time. The Normans later repaired the city after it was destroyed by the Welsh in 1066. Today, Hereford is a thriving city that extends far beyond its medieval walls.
This guidebook features stunning photographs and offers a unique insight into the city's ever-changing past. Perfect for those interested in history, photography, or simply exploring new places, this book provides a fascinating look at the roots of this vibrant city.
