This episode finds Col Andy Taylor and Rev Paul Roberts taking a walk through the Herefordshire market town of Bromyard. They begin in St Peter's Church in the centre of the town, taking a look at the unusual First World War Memorial there.
Our wanderers then take a stroll round the corner to Kirkham Gardens to the former Territorial Drill Hall. This building, today used as the detachment building for Bromyard's Army Cadets is probably the oldest Territorial building which has been in continuous use in the county.
Then a trip up to the rather windy Bromyard Downs to explore the former rifle range there and to talk about Jacob Patrol of the Home Guard Auxiliaries - Bromyard's embryonic resistance movement in case of enemy invasion during the Second World War.
Finally, windswept and hoarse, Andy and Paul retire to the Rose and Lion pub for refreshment and a chat about Bromyard's adopted destroyer during WW2 - HMS Vivien and their very personal connection with the ship.
