Have you always lived in Herefordshire? What are your earliest memories of the county. I didn’t grow up near here: I am a Devon farmer’s daughter so very much a country person. The first time I came to Herefordshire was to visit my boyfriend’s – now husband’s – parents for the first time. My trepidation about this was blown away by the beauty of the vounty. That was over 25 years ago and this first impression has never dimmed.
How would you describe Herefordshire to people who don’t know it? The great undiscovered gem of the English countryside.

YOU’VE probably never thought much about the weight of an angel, but for Ed Elliott it’s a matter of some importance. Because his angel tips the scales at more than 30 stone, and at that size it’s not going to fly! Ed’s cold-cast bronze sculpture – Greer, Guardian Angel – also has a wing span of about 10ft and won the Sculpture of the Year 2020 Award at the Cotswold Sculpture Park. The angel was then dismantled into three manageable sections to travel to the renowned Royal Horticultural Society Rosemoor Winter Sculpture Exhibition in Devon, where it was illuminated for its spectacular Christmas event.
