Ruin of the castle with remnants of stone walls and a few well-preserved towers. The site offers a beautiful vantage point over the surrounding landscape.
Predominantly Old Red Sandstone, with formations providing a sturdy foundation for the historic structure.
Views of the rolling hills of the Herefordshire countryside and the distant Black Mountains.
The name 'Snodhill' likely derives from Old English, meaning 'hill of the Snod' or 'hill of the snotty creature', but let’s not delve into that too much!
Built in the 12th century, the castle played a vital role in the local power struggles of the medieval period.
A delightful loop trail that skirts the base of the castle and ascends through woodland to offer a panoramic view.
Parking available at Snodhill village; limited spaces, be courteous to local residents.
Shuttle buses available from Hereford city centre several times a day.
