King's Caple

Kings Caple[1] is a village in the largest loop of the River Wye between Hereford and Ross-on-Wye in the English county of Herefordshire.

Opposite the church there is an earthwork known as Caple Tump, reputed to be the remains of a castle motte.

There are various farms which are involved in the tourism industry both camping and caravanning as well as B & B and rented accommodation.

Poulstone Court, on the edge of the village, is a residential centre offering retreats and courses with a spiritual and personal growth focus.

Until 1963 King's Caple was linked by the Hereford, Ross & Gloucester Railway to Hereford and Ross, and Fawley railway station was used daily by the local population.
