Dating from the late 19th century, around 1890 to 1900, this photograph transports us to an era of nostalgia and historical charm. Goodrich Castle, a medieval fortification with a rich history, stands proudly on a rocky outcrop overlooking the Wye Valley.

The tower's distinctive shape, combined with the castle's rugged stone walls and lush, green surroundings, create a scene that is both picturesque and captivating. This photograph, with its vibrant colours and meticulous attention to detail, offers a glimpse into the past.
