Kington

Kington is a small market town in Herefordshire, lying on the River Arrow and alongside the Welsh border, in the shadow of Hergest Ridge. It is a popular stop-off point for people walking the Offa's Dyke Path.

Kington has no train service. Buses run from Leominster, Hereford, and nearby towns.

The High Street is narrow and can be a little annoying with traffic but contains a number of interesting individual privately owned shops rather than the national chains you find in many towns.

Check out the pies from the butchers on the High Street. The Burton Hotel (see below) has a good restaurant.
