The Fosse, a Georgian town house incorporating a variety of architectural styles, located on Castle Green, Hereford. Completed in 1825, from a date on the façade. Named from Latin fossa, ‘a ditch’, because built on part of the moat of Hereford’s demolished castle (only a pond remains, opposite the façade).
