Leominster
Leominster is a market town in the English county of Herefordshire. It lies at the confluence of the River Lugg and its tributary the River Kenwater, around 12 miles (19 kilometres) north of the city of Hereford and about 7 miles south of the Shropshire border, 11 miles from Ludlow in Shropshire. Leominster train station has services to Manchester, going through Ludlow and Cardiff, and links to London are achieved by changing at Hereford. With a permanent population of around 11691 people, in accordance with the 2011 Census, Leominster is the largest of the 5 towns Leominster, Ross-on-Wye, Ledbury, Bromyard and Kington in the county encircling the City of Hereford. From 1974 to 1996, Leominster worked as the administrative centre for the previous regional government district of Leominster District. The town takes its name from a minster, which is a group of clergy in the district of Lene or Leon. Through the Early Middle Ages, Leominster was the home of Æthelmod of Leominster, an English saint known to history mainly through the hagiography of the Secgan Manuscript. He is professed to be buried in Leominster. Leominster is also the historical home of Ryeland sheep, a species at one time celebrated for its 'Lemster' wool, named 'Lemster ore'. This wool was prized above all other English wool in trade with the continent of Europe in the Middle Ages. It was the profit and wealth from this wool trade that developed the town and the minster and tempted the envy of the Welsh and other areas.
