Why are our beautiful Medieval City Walls being left to ruin?

I have mentioned this in the recent topic about a number of increased weeds in our city but I do think this justifies a unique topic.

Just look at the weeds growing from the top of this section along Gunners Lane.

Hereford Voice is highlighting just how bad this has become in an attempt to provoke some action and possible restoration from the Council. Hopefully, we can encourage them to put a maintenance plan in place going forward. The Herefordshire County Council need to look at having the weeds removed and also look at cleaning and repairing any unstable sections of the City Walls.

The survival of our Medieval City Walls is very important, this is our heritage and therefore should be protected for future generations to come, after all this site is a scheduled monument protected by law.  

There was a study of Hereford's City Walls back in September 2011 details here and details about the Area of Archaeological Importance (AAI) can be found here

A map of Hereford Area of Archaeological Importance, Hereford city wall conservation management plan documents and archaeology supplementary planning guidance can be found here and here

Some good work being carried out all this week along the Newton Brook in Belmont. The brook has not really been cleaned out in years so it was good to see a JCB making light work of it.

This work was paid for by Herefordshire Council and there is now a program for maintenance along this stretch. 

This work was undertaken following constant pressure to do something from Cllr Tracy Bowes who has been chasing them for months as this is a flood risk. They tried to clear some of the brook near Jubilee field on the last community action day but the silt was above their wellies.

They are monitoring the other parts of the brook and this has been included in the tender for work for next year. 

December, January and February have been highlighted as good times for tree and shrub maintenance and coppicing but there is a plan now which should see additional work carried out throughout the year.

A man charged with the murder of Julie Clark (we understand that this was his mother) who died from stab wounds at her home in Highmore Street, Hereford, last Tuesday appeared in court at Hereford today.

BBC 'Question Time' programme will be broadcast live from Hereford on the 18th January 2018.

Illegal Tobacco Seized During On 17th January 2018, a Multi Agency Task Force carried out search warrants on premises operating as 'mini markets' in Eign Gate Hereford and Drapers Lane, Leominster.

Hello, my partner and I are completely new to Hereford - we moved up from Cornwall a few days ago, leaving virtually everyone we know behind. We aren’t the most social of creatures, and we don’t go out a great deal, but that doesn’t mean we don’t like spending time with good people and listening to good music. I’d love it if the members here could advise and recommend? Especially places that don’t cost an arm and a leg - moving has pretty much cleared out our wallets!

On Monday 29th January, 5.30 - 7pm

After less than a year, the doors have closed - due to unforeseen circumstances.......

A big blow for the staff and in general for the city of Hereford. This was much needed and well used by folk far and wide

It appears they closed unexpectedly and didn’t pay staff, return any outstanding membership fees and Christmas vouchers. No contact has be made with either NICK HAMES or his missus - both co-owners.

No further information.

We have learned today that the Hillside Rehabilitation Centre in Redhill, Hereford is likely to close next month.

All I can say is that I’m shocked! Big expectations but No thought has gone into this whatsoever. To me all day means at least 8am to 6pm,10hrs! 7 acts and I can’t see them doing more than an hour each! Cheeky girls 15min max - 2 “songs†that leaves 3+ hrs to fill. But they’re not going to start at 8 more like noon or 2pm, so not really all day.

So much local talent and some great international talent that has come from the Shire, not one listed, I doubt even contacted. Dried up has beens who probably contacted them. I’d rather spend my £35 at a festival for 3 days seeing real talent, (midge excluded)! And I have.

Disappointed to say the least. Someone please can we have a proper festival/party in the park type event like other towns and cities annually do.

Or are we all too scared because of the Cider & Sausage fiasco a few years ago. So much local talent going for us.

We have reports this morning of an overnight burglary at Tesco Bewell Street.

Parts of the store and underpass is corded off.

It appears that the cigarette kiosk was the target as it was ransacked during the burglary. 

The Carrot and Wine Store in Wormelow will become home to the Post Office on Friday, January 26th.

The Post Office at the former village shop closed in 2014, and was then demolished.

When the Carrot and Wine store opened last year it presented an opportunity to restore Post Office services to Wormelow.

Hinton Football Club (sports ground adjacent waterworks Broomy Hill Hereford) have submitted plans for the proposed demolition of existing clubhouse and erection of new club house to include male and female changing facilities, committee room and spectator facilities.
