Shopping
Monmouth is a traditional county town in Monmouthshire, Wales. It is situated where the River Monnow meets the River Wye, within 2 miles of the border with England. The town was the site of a small Roman fort, Blestium, and became established after the Normans built a castle here after 1067. Its mediaeval stone gated bridge is the only one of its type remaining in Britain. The castle later came into the possession of the House of Lancaster, and was the birthplace of King Henry V in 1387. In 1536, it became the county town of Monmouthshire.
Monmouth later became a tourist centre at the heart of the Wye Valley, as well as a market town. It now acts as a shopping and service centre, and as a focus of educational and cultural activities for its surrounding rural area

Located midway between the cities of Hereford and Gloucester and known as the 'Gateway to the Wye Valley', Ross-on-Wye was the birth place of British tourism. Overlooking the River Wye, the ancient market town has attracted visitors since the 18th Century, who came to escape the industry of the cities and enjoy the scenic Wye Valley and its surrounding countryside. The visitor will find plenty to do and many old buildings of historic interest, including the Parish Church of St. Mary's, Ross Market Building (now the Heritage Centre) and many more.

Ross-on-Wye

The ancient City of Hereford set on the banks of the River Wye is a delightful mixture of historic and contemporary architecture and although a city, it has a distinctive and friendly market town feel.
The name "Hereford" is said to come from the Anglo-Saxon "here", an army or formation of soldiers, and the "ford", a place for crossing a river. If this is the origin it suggests that Hereford was a place where a body of armed men forded or crossed the Wye. The Welsh name for Hereford is Henffordd, meaning "old road", and probably refers to the Roman road and Roman settlement at nearby Stretton Sugwas.
An early town charter from 1189 granted by Richard I of England describes it as "Hereford in Wales". Hereford has been recognised as a city since time immemorial, with the status being reconfirmed as recently as October 2000.
It is now known chiefly as a trading centre for a wider agricultural and rural area. Products from Hereford include: cider, beer, leather goods, nickel alloys, poultry, chemicals, and cattle, including the famous Hereford breed.
