Fix this textTO OSS-ON-WYE, situated on a hill over-
Fix this textlooking the Wye, retains much of its
Fix this textold-world appearance. Its most promin-
Fix this textent building is the 12th century church
Fix this textwhose needle-like spire towers above the
Fix this textbeautiful Wye Valley. Another feature
Fix this textof the town is the Marked House or
Fix this textTown Hall, built of red sandstone on
Fix this textraised arches in the reign of Charles II
Fix this text(1660-1685), Nearby is the house once
Fix this textoccupied by John Kyrle, who died in
Fix this text1724, known through Pope’s poem as
Fix this text“The Man of Ross,” renowned for his
Fix this textloyalty to the Stuarts and for his
Fix this textbenevolence.
Fix this textRoss is an unrivalled centre for tour-
Fix this texting ; either by- road or boat the Wye
Fix this textValley possesses some of the most beauti-
Fix this textful and impressive scenery in the British
Fix this textIsles. Here can be seen verdant hills
Fix this textand cultivated pastures, for here, as
Fix this textMasefield, the Poet Laureate, has said
Fix this textof the Wye Valley, nearly every one lives
Fix this texton and by the land ; it is nature unsullied
Fix this textby industry. Here it is that the tired
Fix this textheart can turn for renewed energy, and
Fix this textthe wearied brain for fresh inspiration.
Fix this textThe River Wye is one of the fine rivers
Fix this textwhich has its source in Plynlimmon, the
Fix this textWelsh mountain. Its course to the sea
Fix this textis sinuous; and in places it doubles back
Fix this texton itself; an example of this is afforded
Fix this textby the remarkable Horseshoe Bend at
Fix this textRoss. The banks of the river have a wide
Fix this textdiversity of charm; ancient castles and
Fix this textabbeys, stately mansions, cliffs rising 700
Fix this textfeet above the bed of the river, and
Fix this textpicturesque rocky heights richly wooded
Fix this textwith wild cherry, hazel, birch and
Fix this textbeeches. In its course, and within easy
Fix this texttouring distance of Ross, the river passes
Fix this textTintern Abbey, the castles of Wilton,
Fix this textGoodrich and Chepstow, Flanesford
Fix this textPriory founded in 1347, and Courtfield,
Fix this texta mansion associated with the boyhood
Fix this textof Henry V.
Fix this textMr. H. V. Morton in his book “In
Fix this textSearch of England” has this to say of
Fix this textthe view from Ross, “I looked down at
Fix this textthe Bend of the river and out, over green
Fix this textcountry that lies in calm beauty, to the
Fix this textmountains of Wales, This is, I think,
Fix this textone of the most magnificent panoramas
Fix this textI have yet seen.”
