Ross-on-Wye

Situated on a horseshoe bend in the River Wye, Ross-on-Wye is a delightful little market town in Herefordshire, England.  Black and white beamed buildings mingle with traditional stone to create a lively vista.  Anthony J. Avery is renowned for capturing the spirit and beauty of the Wye Valley, and Ross-on-Wye in particular.

		This is the Market House in the centre of Ross-on-Wye, and one of its most distinctive features. It was built in 1654.
In and around the historic marketplace building, a bustling market is held on Thursdays and Saturdays - as captured here in watercolours.
		One of England's most picturesque river scenes has been captured here in oils by Anthony. Not surprisingly, his pictures of Ross-on-Wye are eagerly bought up by locals and visitors alike.
