May 30th, 1879. 



TITHE first meeting this year took place on Friday, May 30th. A small 

 \j company left Barr's Court Station at 9.25 for Kington, where, upon 

 assembling at the Oxford Arms Hotel, the business of the Club was tran- 

 sacted, and afterwards carriages were taken for Water-break-its-neck. 



No record was taken of the company present, nor of the objects of interest 

 on the route^which, according to the programme of the day, consisted of " The 

 site of lladnor Castle — and the New Church, to see the effigies which lie on the 

 floor under the tower ; the remains of the western Town Wall ; and a wide bank 

 or mound on the right of the turnpike road, which is supposed to have been part 

 of the boundary of Herefordshire until the time of Henry VIII." 



Suffice it to say that the members enjoyed a charming pic-nic amidst 

 delighful scenery, and after visiting the Waterfalls returned to a cold collation at 

 the Oxford Arras, leaving Kington at 7.40 p.m. for Hereford.
