Clifford Castle is a Norman Motte and Bailey castle, situated above a bend in the River Wye, in Herefordshire, 2 miles downstream from Hay-on-Wye. This historic building, in ruins for over 600 years, had been deteriorating rapidly over the past 20 years and was on Historic England’s At Risk register. The current owners, with generous assistance from Historic England, have embarked on on a stabilisation program, designed to prevent the ruin’s collapse and ensure this important building survives into the next century.
