Talk:Ross-on-Wye

Untitled

I'm not sure Ross is really famous for it's bookshops other than W H Smith I can only think of one new book shop and one other second hand shop - perhaps someone's confusing it with Hay-on-Wye? The new Ross-on-Wye picture from geograph.co.ok, says it is a picture of Tamworth. So, what gives? Is this really a picture of Ross on Wye? Nyh 08:07, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

Sounds like someone may well have confused Hay and Ross. Jeremy Bolwell (talk) 12:42, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

As a resident of Ross-on-Wye, I can confirm that the photograph is of the town, though it is a little dated.--WJCB (talk) 17:43, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

Ross Vegas

Ross-on-Wye is renowned for its many pubs and charity shops, but few people know that it is also a Mecca for gamblers. With Ladbrokes, William Hill and The Mathew Jones Super Casino all within walking distance of the town centre, Ross-on-Wye is often referred to by locals as 'Ross Vegas'.

Gallery

I have added some images in a Gallery, mostly of the Market House. Unfortunately the church was covered in scaffolding when I visited. Other editors are welcome to replace or remove the current images to provide a more balanced gallery in the future. Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 20:12, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
