Bulls Hill, ROSS-ON-WYE, HR9 5SD

Ancient pond on the spring line below the mediaeval manor house of Wythall.

A half timbered house dating from the 1600s with additions from the early 1700s. There's a large pond in the garden and practically everything in the gardens around this house - stables, a former chapel, a cider house - is grade II listed. That's about all the internet has to say about the place, other than there are holiday cottages to let in the grounds.
