The entrance is from the corner of Vineyard Road and Hampton Park Road. The City of Hereford plaque http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/738632 on the wall records that this was the home of Sir Edward Elgar from 1904-1911. Elgar and his family moved here soon after he was knighted in July 1904. The house was named Plas Gwyn. It has been converted to flats and is now named Elgar Court.
