Leominster is a market town in the English county of Herefordshire. It lies at the confluence of the River Lugg and its tributary the River Kenwater, around 12 miles (19 km) north of the city of Hereford and about 7 miles south of the Shropshire border, 11 miles from Ludlow in Shropshire. Leominster railway station has services to Manchester, travelling through Ludlow and Cardiff, and links to London are achieved by changing at Hereford. With a permanent population of around 11691 people, in accordance with the 2011 Census, Leominster is the largest of the five towns Leominster, Ross-on-Wye, Ledbury, Bromyard and Kington in the county bordering the City of Hereford. From 1974 to 1996, Leominster functioned as the administrative centre for the former local government district of Leominster District. The town takes its name from a minster, which is a group of clergy in the district of Lene or Leon. Throughout the Early Middle Ages, Leominster was the home of Æthelmod of Leominster, an English saint known to history mainly through the hagiography of the Secgan Manuscript. He is alleged to be buried in Leominster. Leominster is also the historical home of Ryeland sheep, a species once notable for its ‘Lemster’ wool, known as ‘Lemster ore’. This wool was cherished above all other English wool in trade with the continent of Europe in the Middle Ages. It was the profit and prosperity from this wool trade that formed the town and the minster and drew in the envy of the Welsh and other regions.
