The Marches Delicatessen

Reviewed By JoBowden - Bodmin, United Kingdom

Popped into Marches today on a trip across to Monmouth looking for some local cheese. Delighted to discover a cafe at the rear where we were able to have some lunch before making our purchases. I had a lovely cheese board, with three different cheeses and my husband had a large bowl of delicious soup served with bread, cheese and chutney. We were then helped to make our selection of cheeses by a really helpful and knowledgeable guy who we assumed was the proprietor, and came away with some great cheese. Well worth a visit if you’re in the area and we will be back!

St Mary's Priory Church

Reviewed By chrisfR5769OW - Cardiff, United Kingdom

This is a wonderful church building. One of the most magnificent in Wales. Try to also visit the Tithe Barn and view the tapestry. However the location is Abergavenny.

Shire Hall Monmouth

Reviewed By paulrL7933KJ - Epping, United Kingdom

Definitely worth a visit, and it is free but you need to be good on the legs if you intend to visit the cells that seem deep underground. The information about the trial of the chartists and their fate is very well documented.

St. Thomas The Martyr Church

Reviewed By susanexton - Monmouth, United Kingdom

This little church almost on the Old Monnow Bridge is a delight and a must see if visiting Monmouth. Lots of original features. Check out the font in particular.

Monnow Bridge and Gate

Reviewed By 70ish - Worcester, United Kingdom

This is always my first stop when I visit Monmouth I never tire of the beautiful setting and you always get a sense of history going through the gate walking in the footsteps of so many before you over the centuries. It is unique too being the only fortified bridge to survive in Great Britain

Monmouth Museum

Reviewed By bramwelln - Ross-on-Wye, United Kingdom

An interesting, compact museum with a wide variety of exhibits. I have been surprised to speak with many who live within a 20 mile radius of this museum and have not yet visited it. Hopefully, they will soon rectify this oversight! Combine this visit with the castle, courthouse and regimental museum and you will easily fill a day's visit to Monmouth.

Monmouth Castle and Military Museum

Reviewed By djrose007 - Gloucester, United Kingdom

I loved this little museum which is packed solid with information,newspaper cuttings, posters, uniforms, weapons, artefacts, all very interesting. Some of the uniforms are very familiar to fans of the film Zulu. As with all such treasures it is free to enter and donations welcomed to help with the upkeep.
