Ewyas Harold Common

1.9 miles (3 km)

Ordnance Survey Map Open Streetmap Enjoy an easy walk through the pretty Ewyas Harold Common in the Golden Valley of West Hertfordshire. There's some nice trails to follow across the site where you can see meadow saffron, woodland and grazing ponies. You can start the walk from the village and then follow the Herefordshire Trail north to the common. There's some nice grassy footpaths and flora including Rosebay Willowherb, bramble, hawthorn and birch trees.
Our Golden Valley Walk runs through the common. You could pick it up and head north through the lovely river valley to Abbey Dore and the remains of Dore Abbey.

This area of bracken has been cut to increase the grazing area. Sheep have now been returned to the common. Areas that aren't bracken or grass are covered in successional scrub, with a mix of Rosebay Willowherb, bramble, hawthorn and birch trees. The tree left on the right is an apple tree.

This is a weedy patch amongst the gorse and scrub. The ragwort was removed a couple of days later, in preparation for re-introducing grazing.
