Kington, Herefordshire, is a small and ancient market town sheltered by the 1,389-ft Hergest (pronounced Hargest, the “g” hard) Ridge. It is situated near the Welsh border on the A44, 14 miles West of Leominster. The River Arrow flows through. It remains important for its sheep and cattle market. Its Norman church can be seen at the top of a steep hill from an old stone bridge crossing the river. Although it retains its Norman tower and doorway as well as an exquisite 13^th-century chancel, most of the church was unfortunately restored in 1874. it has a fine tomb with the alabaster figures of Thomas Vaughan and his wife. He was killed at the Battle of Banbury in 1469. Many of the more interesting buildings were either swept away or restored out of recognition in the mid-Victorian period. However, some good Georgian houses escaped. Just outside Kington is the Vaughans' mostly 15^th-century Hergest Court, a farm-house since they departed. It was reputed to be haunted by the ghost of a black bloodhound and by Black Vaughan. On nearby Rushock Hill and Kennel Wood is a good stretch of Offa's Dyke. Like Church Stretton in Shropshire, Kington claims England's highest golf course.
