In 1100, Henry 1 set up 3 royal manors in Herefordshire, including the manor of Wilton. This included a number of surrounding villages such as Peterstow.[1] Wilton Bridge [https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/619692] was a major crossing [https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/459060] of the River Wye and was protected by Wilton Castle [https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/167009]. Both suffered significant damage during the English Civil War. The bridge has been restored and strengthened and updated with a sundial [https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/167012]. Now the village is known for the roundabout where the A49 trunk road joins the A40. Being a convenient staging point it has several hotels.
