Herefordshire Through Time
Herefordshire Through Time
In addition to fish ponds, parts of a river could be used to create fisheries. The Domesday survey mentions 14 fisheries in Herefordshire. Seven fisheries were located on the river Wye, three on the Lugg, three on the Dore, and one on the Teme (H.C. Darley and I.B. Terrett (eds.), The Domesday Geography of Midland England, 1954).
