MUCH Cowarne features in the nostalgia page this week.

The village is located in countryside away from main roads, with views to the Malvern Hills and Wye Valley.

Composer Edward Elgar considered the landscape around the village as a source of inspiration, frequently cycling in the area to visit the church or friends at Cowarne Court.

Our photographs show the old school house and a more recent picture of Fir Tree Garage in 1974.

All of these images were taken with permission from Hereford Herefordshire Remembered Facebook group.

If you have any old photographs of Ledbury or the surrounding district please email them to matthew.holmes@newsquest.co.uk
