In 1887, John Bartholomew's Gazetteer of the British Isles described Wilton like this:
Wilton, hamlet, Herefordshire, on river Wye, 1 mile W. of Ross; P.O.; has remains of Wilton Castle, the residence of the Greys from time of Edward I. till the great Civil War between Charles and the Parliament, when it was destroyed. The Wye is here crossed by Wilton Bridge, a 6-arched structure built in the time of Elizabeth.
