A COMMUNITY in rural Herefordshire has said it feels blessed and very fortunate after being gifted common land. Villagers in Ewyas Harold, nestled in the Golden Valley near the Welsh border, said the generous John Rogers, Lord of the Manor of Ewyas Harold for more than 60 years, has let the common trust take over ownership of the land. Under his stewardship the common at Ewyas Harold has become more popular with local walkers and has maintained wildlife, the group said. In his usual community spirit, Mr Rogers made the decision to give the common to the local community and Ewyas Harold Common Trust took over the ownership just before lockdown in February 2020.
