One
of the oldest cities in England, Hereford is a county
town and the seat of a bishopric older than England
itself. Archaeology in the City of Hereford has been
carried out, in one way or another, for over a century.

The
western defences of Hereford.
Originally built as an earthen bank
and ditch in the early medieval
period, Hereford's defences were strengthened by
Harold Godwinson (later King Harold II) in 1055/6 and
rebuilt in stone in the 13th century. |
