Route outline (key)
A480 Kington - Hereford

Route

The A48x group contains a couple of very long 3 digit A roads, but the A480 isn't one of them.

The A480 at Upperton

Kington - Hereford

It starts on the A44 a few miles east of the Herefordshire town of Kington as a single carriageway non-primary route. It heads south east towards Lyonshall, then meets the primary A4112 at Sarnsefield, near Weobley. Weobley itself is worth the short detour - a well preserved black and white style village with a couple of good pubs.

Back on the A480, we continue towards Hereford, passing through thousands of acres of prime agricultural land. We pass RAF Credenhill before crossing Hereford's unofficial northern bypass, the A4103 Roman Road at Stretton Sugwas. Shortly after, we arrive at a T junction where we meet the A438 primary route into Hereford.
