Looking across the Wye from the south bank. The building on the right is the former Campions Restaurant, complete with missing windows, holes in the roof and a lot of anti-social behaviour. Planning permission is sought to convert it into riverside flats. On the left is Hereford rowing club.

A refurbished clubhouse on Greyfriars Avenue leads to steps down to the river for launching boats. http://www.herefordrc.co.uk/

Looking downstream to Hereford city centre. The cathedral is on the right and the spire of All Saints church is on the left beyond the playing fields.

Dist:0.1km<br/>The building with the missing rooftiles was last used as a restaurant.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Historically a large residence, then a restaurant with riverside gardens and for many years, maybe around a decade, as a ruin. Surrounded by nice, well kept houses and in a sought after location, so a bit of a mystery. Now 'for sale' - surely a prime site for apartments overlooking the River Wye, close to town etc.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Once a hotel and / or restaurant I believe, long disused and derelict, and now likely to be developed as prime upmarket riverside apartment blocks I hear.

Dist:0.2km<br/>This dilapidated building, on the edge of the River Wye, was once an up-market restaurant, with fabulous views for the diners - especially when the river was in full flood. Now due for demolition, to make way for apartments.

Dist:0.2km<br/>I've meant to geograph this old ruin for years - watching it gradually go from wrack to ruin by inches over maybe the best part of a decade or more. Fascinating.

Dist:0.2km<br/>underneath the modern road bridge. The old stone bridge, just to the right (down-stream), only takes single file traffic with lights to alternate the flow.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Looking upstream from Wye Bridge, with the more modern by-pass nearby; an old railway bridge can also be seen in the distance.
