Eign Hill

Eign Hill forms part of Hereford's eastern suburbs, perched on rising ground above the Wye Valley with decent views toward the Welsh borders. The A49 from Shrewsbury and A438 from Gloucester provide the main approaches, whilst the area connects easily to Hereford city centre via local roads. Regular buses serve the railway station for onward connections to Birmingham and Cardiff. The nearby New Weir Roman site reveals where legions once crossed the Wye en route to Wales.
