Ledbury
Ledbury is a Herefordshire market town, being found east of Hereford, and west of the Malvern Hills. In accordance with the 2011 Census, the town has a permanent population of 9290. Ledbury reaps the benefits of an income from tourism, being immersed in history in an appealing rural spot. It has a notable variety of timber-framed structures, particularly along Church Lane and High Street. One of the most magnificent is the Market House, built in 1617, found in the town centre. Other noteworthy buildings include the parish church of St. Michael and All Angels, the Painted Room, containing sixteenth-century frescoes, the Old Grammar School, the Barrett-Browning memorial clock tower, created by Brightwen Binyon and opened in 1896 to house the library until 2015, close by Eastnor Castle, and the St. Katherine's Hospital website. Started around 1231, this is a rare enduring example of a hospital complex, with hall, chapel, a Master's House, which was entirely restored and opened in March 2015 to house the Library, almshouses and a timber-framed barn. The town is the site for several events including the Poetry Festival. The Market Theatre, considered to be the very first on the planet to open in the new millennium, is positioned near the town centre. They show films on a regular basis and play host to small and mid-scale specialist touring shows, featuring some events in the Poetry Festival. The annual Community Day takes place in June each year. The first such event was an Ox Roast on 2 June 2013 to celebrate the diamond jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II's crowning, exactly 60 years after an ox roast that was hosted in 1953 in Ledbury on Coronation Day.
