Welcome to Twyford Common

Twyford Common is a beautiful and serene area located in Herefordshire, England. The common is a vast expanse of greenery that is home to a variety of flora and fauna. The area is a popular destination for nature lovers and hikers who come to explore the many trails that crisscross the common. The common is also a great place for birdwatching, with a variety of bird species that can be spotted throughout the year.

One of the most striking features of Twyford Common is its ancient oak trees. These trees are believed to be over 500 years old and are a testament to the area's rich history. The common was once used as a grazing ground for livestock, and the oak trees were left untouched to provide shade for the animals. Today, the trees are a popular attraction for visitors who come to marvel at their size and beauty.

Twyford Common is also home to a number of historic landmarks, including the Twyford Court moat and the Twyford Castle ruins. The moat is a well-preserved example of a medieval moat and is a popular spot for picnics and relaxation. The castle ruins, on the other hand, are a reminder of the area's turbulent past and are a fascinating sight for history buffs. Overall, Twyford Common is a must-visit destination for anyone looking to experience the natural beauty and rich history of Herefordshire.

Severn Way
A Beautiful Walk Along The River Severn With Farm Land All Around. The Parking Is On The Narrow Lane In The Form Of Makeshift Lay-Bys, However There Is Rarely More Than 1 Or 2 Cars There. I Suggest Keeping Your Dog On A Lead Until You Get Through The Gate. Go Up The Track And Bear Left And Keep Walking! I've Walked About 4 Miles Before Turning Round And Heading Back, I'm Not Sure How Far It's Possible To Go, Many More Miles I Assume. There's Plenty Of Access To The River For Hot And Thirsty Dogs. It's Incredibly Quiet, I've Rarely Encountered More Than 1 Or 2 Other Walkers, With Lots Of Wildlife Such As Pheasants, Rabbits And Even A Hate Or 2.
