Goodrich Castle & the River Wye

Goodrich Castle is situated to the north of the village of Goodrich in Herefordshire, and is on the west bank of the River Wye. It controlled a key location between Monmouth and Ross-on-Wye, whichj is about five miles to the north. It was praised by William Wordsworth as the "noblest ruin in Herefordshire" and is considered by historian Adrian Pettifer to be the "most splendid in the county, and one of the best examples of English military architecture". It is owned by English Heritage and open to the public.
