A small-town identity and sense of belonging
Many respondents describe Ross-on-Wye with real affection for its character as a place — its size, its familiarity, and its events — rather than just its physical features.
“That's the town, it's not too big, it's the right size to which every person knows each other”
“its small and good for families and people who dont like big cities or towns”
“Well it's a beautiful town, good landscape and wonderful people”
“Of course this place is special to me because I have lived here all my life but also because it is full of people, though not too busy, and is calm some days and exciting others; for example the Ross-on-wye fairs or Christmas fairs or the Ross lions organisations. I also love how there are always smiley faces round the corner and most people here are friendly.”
